(verse)
(chorus)



I don't expect a response from you
and I won't try to elicit one
I stroke your walls as I prowl along
they seem to be so strong
your windows are on their own
they are letting in a steady blow
I can hear the wings of the locust
but it doesn't seem to matter much

I don't trust your corridors
why do I hear the timber groan

I'm getting closer hitting rooms
no light has shown
I like the fixtures 
I adore the woodwork
I lay prone making out faces in the plaster
my fingers probing the molding for a trigger

I don't trust your corridors
why do I hear the timber groan

volumes of polaroids commemorate nothing 
to speak of to speak of 
there are whole selections of this house
not on the floor plan
and I will ransack 'til I find myself an entry

you can't afford to let me go on 
searching for a motive 
you've got to assure me 
don't allow me to doubt 
produce the passkey satisfy my suspicions
will you trick me to co-author your plans
elaborate plans

I don't trust your corridors
why do I hear the timber groan
