Lyrics
there is something wrong
this old pinocchio nose
has grown a league or two
and the big whale's mouth is closed
I was always strong
could never be undersold
kept my eyes, ever so high
ever so cold
days are shorter now
my motherland is locked down
across the ocean
I smell a burning town
now I know fear
and it has no metaphor
all my lines losing their
rhymes as you head for the door
before you go
don't make me a lonely pine
low water line
if I shame you so
remember the morning tide
is long where the night boats row
