SDR - Knockin' Down the Walls

Pinecrest

(Elbel)

I am lying here on my quilted throne
my scepter by my side
the undisputed king of all I see

will you offer up your tribute
would you offer up your time

all from ashes
fun to funky
peanut butter
smooth or chunky

every day as the day before
a prisoner of routine
the freedom past my window burns my eyes

how the days drag on forever
how the days they seem so few

all to ashes
once a young one
I remember
won't someone

(chorus)
talk to me, say something, don't leave me, I long in
loneliness, I suffer, isolate, no other
counting down, 3-2-1, moments I've left...
(on my own)

shadow puppets and solitaire
keep me entertained
the walls have ears, but seldom breathe a word

the cry so often sent forth
so often unreturned

smashing pumpkins, blind melon
kids today have no talent

(repeat chorus)

I am lying here on my quilted throne
and here I shall remain
the undisputed king of all I see

will you fetch my bunny slippers
shall i tan your scrawny hide

all from ashes
fun to funky
dressed to nines
and feeling spunky

(repeat chorus)
