The Gown and the Key

Verse 1

Heavy

The gown felt heavy

Like thick plastic dripping in the sun

I stood

I stared

I watched the gym clock stop ticking

Empty halls

Paper scraps

Falling like gray snow in June

Chorus

Is it starting now

Is it starting now

Is it starting now

I feel the floor shaking

I feel the floor shaking

I feel the floor shaking

Waiting for the wind to take me

Waiting for the wind to take me

Verse 2

Packing

Cardboard boxes

Piled high against the bedroom door

Cold dust

Old trust

Tossed out on the lawn for free

One key

The only thing I own today

Looking back

Looking forward

Looking nowhere at all

Chorus

Is it starting now

Is it starting now

Is it starting now

I feel the floor shaking

I feel the floor shaking

I feel the floor shaking

Waiting for the wind to take me

Waiting for the wind to take me

Bridge

Maybe I am ready

Maybe I am steady

Maybe I am heavy

No one knows the way

No one knows the way

No one knows the way

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Is it starting now

Is it starting now

Is it starting now

I feel the floor shaking

I feel the floor shaking

I feel the floor shaking

Waiting for the wind to take me

Waiting for the wind to take me

Outro

Where to go

Where to go

Where to go

It is starting now

It is starting now

It is starting now
