The Evitable World

Lyrics

Meet Mr. Driftwood, alone in his house He covered the tiny cracks to keep out the light The start of the holidays has come into sight He's soon at a different place without going out He's not a prisoner of the darkness around But more like a free man in one endless night Peace has been waiting here for him to be found Between thickened curtains lies his own paradise He feels the joy of cutting off Rays of light from the sun He covers cracks and all clocks Says goodbye, so long Fade out into the dark But his house is still like home He's not lonely, just alone He's not picking up the phone No more opening the door People shouldn't say a word 'Cause they don't understand There is nothing absurd 'Bout the evitable world
