Hush, Hush

Hush, hush, everything is hush, hush The colors here have all but gone Hush, hush, everyone is hush, hush The crickets sound a tintinnabulation of urgent alarms Hush, hush, calm yourself Time will make this mountain move The walls of this house hear things we don't dare say Each peculiar thought I weave settles in the corner Everything we say gathers in the eaves Every look you send my way hovers in the rafters And it all rains down It all rains down It all rains down Draw a line, toes behind On your marks now, get set and go Run for your life Run, run for your life The bones of this house hear songs we don't dare sing The faucet drips our numbered days and echoes in the hallway Come and go, hide and seek Finders keepers, losers, weepers Run, run Hush, hush Run, run Hush, hush Run, run Hush, hush Time will make this mountain move
