JACK'S MANNEQUIN LYRICS - Caves

"Caves"



I'm caught

Somewhere in between

Alive

And living a dream.

No peace

Just clicking machines

In the quiet of compazine.

The walls caved in on me.



And she sings

My bird dressed in white.

And she stings

My arm in the night.

I lay still

Still I'm ready to fight.

Have my lungs

But you can't take my sight.

The walls caved in

Tonight.



And out here

I watch the sun circle the earth

The marrows collide in rebirth

In God's glory praise

The spirit calls out from the caves.

The walls fell and there I lay

Saved.



The walls are caving in

As far as I can see

The walls are caving in

The doors got locked for sure

There's no one here but me



Beat my body like a rag doll

you stuck the needles in my hip

Said 'we're not gonna lie

Son, you just might die

Get you on that morphine drip, drip'



The walls are caving in

As far as I can see

The walls are caving in

The doors got locked for sure

There's no one here but me



I fought a war to walk a gang plank

Into a life I left behind

Windows leading to the past

Think it's time I broke some glass

Get this history off my mind



And what if we were married forever?

Like the past never happened

And time did not exist for us at all

I still think we'd still be traveling together

Through all kinds of weather

Everything's a piece of everyone



As far as I can see

Walls are caving in

Doors got locked for sure

But I see these doors have keys



Walls are caving in

As far as I can see

The walls are caving in

Doors got locked for sure

There's no one here but me

There's no one here but me

No one here but me, yeah.

There's no one here but me

No one here but me
