Pull the wool back from your eyes
You will serve as the witness
Such a subtle surprise that you would
Leave it all behind
She fell for the lies of the world today
Still her tears fell from the top of the world anyway
Tell the scarecrow not to sleep
Though the birds call his name
Doesn't matter much to me
I'm indifferent all the same
She fell for the lies of the world today
As her tears fell from the top of the world
I though I heard her say
Tell the clouds
It's time to go home
Don't you overstay your welcome
Close your eyes
It's time to go home
Don't you overstay your welcome
Shade my words in hollowed guise
Feel the earth as it moves you
Frame yourself in fancy light
I bet you wanted to
Tell the clouds
It's time to go home
Don't you overstay your welcome
Close your eyes
It's time to go home
Don't you overstay your welcome
Still her tears fell
And her fears fell
As the years tell a thousand sad, sad stories
I find it hard to say
Tell the clouds
You'll be on your own
Don't you overstay your welcome
Close your eyes
It's time to go home
Don't you overstay your welcome
