Hush, Hush

Hush, hush, everything is hush, hush

The colors here have all but gone

Hush, hush, everyone is hush, hush

The crickets sound a tintinnabulation of urgent alarms

Oh, hush, hush, calm yourself

Time will make this mountain move

The walls of this house hear

Things we don't dare say

Each peculiar thought I weave

Settles in the corner

Everything we say

Gathers in the eaves

Every look you send my way

Hovers in the rafters

And it all rains down

It all rains down

It all rains down

Draw a line

Toes behind

On your marks now

And get set and go

Run for your life!

Run, run for your life!

The bones of this house hear

Songs we don't dare sing

The faucet drips our numbered days

And echoes in the hallway

Come and go

Hide and seek

Finders keepers

Losers, weepers

Run, run! Hush, hush

Run, run! Hush, hush

Run, run! Hush, hush

Time will make this mountain move
