Muddy Waters

After they've taken everything that we might have owned
After they've stolen the thing that we have loved
It's then they say It's just not enough

Like Muddy Waters to a recalcitrant guitar player
With a hand like a fist pins him to the wall
Looks him in the eye says Boy you must go

Fire is like a mirror
We were standing there rocking on our heels
Watching the heart of the flames

Smoke is like a door
Through it you never come back to me
I was standing on the outside inside looking out
And I was seeing someone that's too far away

I was standing on the inside looking out
Looking at the outside and I was asking myself
Why do I delay any longer than this?
