The Room - Astronauts, etc.

You led me to a room I’d heard about

Invited me to stay and nose around

I turned over a chest and there poured out

My will to leave

I didn’t take a visitor for years

The terms of our engagement you made clear

Any other room was mine to share

But not this fantasy

They’re hounding me to death

To say we’re through

Won’t let me take a breath

Until I do

They’re hounding me to death

To say we’re through

When others caught the scent

To where I’d been

Told me of the danger I was in

I’d nothing to refute

Their warnings with so gave them apathy

Running back to you

To those four walls

Safe inside the room behind the lock

Understood I hadn’t left at all

And now I’m panicking

They’re hounding me to death

To say we’re through

Won’t let me take a breath

Until I do

They’re hounding me to death

To say we’re through
