He’s In the Woodwork

I let him in my head
Some endless years ago
Where drapes are always drawn
And there’s nowhere for us to go
And you had to know him
And his faint backroom glow

But he is what’s between the flesh and bone you see
And sometimes I find that then and now start to bleed

Through the open window
I can hear the morning birds
And you’ve turned your back on me
It’s okay you aren’t the first
He’s the one who had you
That’s the truth of my curse

And the shape you want is shades of grey
And I speak his words and wear his face
And you should know
I have a brother
And you should know
He’s been your lover
He’s in the woodwork

And he is what’s between the flesh and bone you see
And sometimes I find that then and now start to bleed

And the shape you want is shades of grey
And I speak his words and wear his face
And you should know
I have a brother
And you should know
He’s been your lover

He’s in the wood
The woodwork
He’s in the wood
The woodwork

He’s in the woodwork
