  • You've been here before
    I've seen that face before I opened the door to you
    You've got the power
    That's why I like you
    Yes it's true


    (Grant)
    Inside on the ceiling
    black above the deathbed.
    There's a bandage on the curtain
    across the window. It moves but
    does not move.

    (Steve)
    Deep, deep in a room patiently
    shining in the darkness
    surrounding. Small details
    dissolving, the moment it comes
    penetration is due


    You've got the power
    That's why I like you
    Yes it's true


    (Grant)
    Outside there's a wind crawling
    up the hill to the top of the
    trees. Moving through a melody
    of grief it sounds like running
    from the body.


    (Steve)
    You're coming up through,
    nobody sees you, but I do.
    First notice the feeling
    and then the sound as the
    flesh breaks through


    (Grant)
    I said it all, was that all
    I said, yeah I said it all
    was that all I said


    (Steve)
    You've got the power, that's
    why I like you
    Yes it's true


    He's been driving since 1943
    Never sent a postcard home
    What about them bones in the orchard wall
    Yeah he's running from the body


    Yes it's true
    Raise your right hand and swear to tell the truth, the whole
    truth, and nothing but the truth
