An architect
Of grand romance

You're holed up in your house

Just waiting for the fire

All sown up
You're an ontological soul

The myth behind the lies

Come on out
Throw us a bone

We want to know your intentions

Are you fake
       Dm
For goodness sake

Or the Mother of Invention

You're buttoned down
All sown up

What we already know
