[00:17.51]Satellites and radio towers
[00:21.47]Lightbulbs in the deep
[00:26.00]Tiny artificial eyes
[00:30.30]Protect you while you sleep
[00:35.79]And tell your mama
[00:39.85]That you've gotta go
[00:44.22]And even though it's cold outside
[00:47.27]It's the only place that you know
[00:51.00]It's a heavy home
[00:59.33]
[01:00.70]Three steps forward  one step back
[01:13.31]Eggshells 'neath your feet
[01:17.92]Turning all that's gray to black
[01:22.03]The daylight's great defeat
[01:26.07]And tell your mama
[01:31.68]That you've gotta go
[01:36.03]And even though it's cold outside
[01:39.27]It's the only place that you know
[01:42.77]It's a heavy home
[01:46.81]
[01:51.73]And when you get there
[01:54.16]There's a tall drink of water
[01:56.53]And a bitter pill
[01:58.45]It's all you get so choke it down
[02:00.82]And when you get you've had your fill
[02:03.31]You'll smile your crooked smile for old time's sake
[02:08.42]
[02:09.36]And find your place in the sadness
[02:17.09]Don't walk away in the dark
[02:26.03]It's not all gray in the sadness
[02:31.19]
[02:57.66]I can tell it when you speak
[03:02.53]You shiver everywhere
[03:07.14]Paper walls let the nighttime through
[03:11.31]But there ain't enough to share
[03:14.67]
[03:17.30]And tell your mama
[03:21.27]That you've gotta go
[03:25.48]And even though it's cold outside
[03:29.04]It's the only place that you know
[03:32.31]It's a heavy home
