Hatches battened down
Stilted basement floors
Bars keep safe the windows
Like a boarded cellar door

Mirror to the dreamer
And the dreams of its denial
I wonder what they're watching
As they're staring for a while

Parceled serotonin
Shattered concentration
ode to old emotions
Propped up inspiration

Waving to the watcher
And his guarded invitation
Asking what it equals
Both sides of the equation

Feast or you'll be fasting
Like a palm without a pyre
The ask is everlasting
And the watt's without a wire

Parceled serotonin
Shattered concentration
ode to old emotions
Propped up inspiration
