Stowaway Songtext

von PigPen Theatre Co.

I can see how
Our dirty thread now
Is close to broke since we last spoke

A stowaway from Galway
I went through all your gowns
And spooked away all your ghosts

Coffins arose, but no one ever spoke

Comfort is as comfort does
And I've held up all your crowns
And I've wondered since what I'd do now

A tower is as feared
As its glass is clear
For those inside that do look down

But soon the ground arose, and everybody choked

But oh my garden
Oh my roses cut by friends that I knew then

Oh your hardened heart
It softens with the friends that you had when

If I am a frown
Once cooked but now chewed down
A stomachs worth of all this work

But give me just a smile
It'll last me for a while
As I search for what made this worked

But oh my garden
Oh my roses cut by friends that I knew then

Oh your hardened heart
It softens with the friends that you had when
