random sample did a whole different version of this story/song. this is the original demo, more like a completely seperate song altogether. nice to know it's so adaptable...

1) i stumble thru the door, i'm almost left behind.
her voice cuts thru still air, 'don't act so surprised,
what did you think you'd find?'

2) i tripped i'm so dog tired, i tripped and fell asleep.
she found me by the beach of the rocket summer sea,
'what did you hope to see?'

** up and out we go, the lights turn off as i walk by,
i'm a rank outsider in this world outside.
up and out we go, i'm outside, where are the stars?

her eyes are the window to the stars
the that are denied, well i thought they had died
but they're right outside...

3) questions filled my mind, like, what did i leave behind?
she takes me by the hand and leads me up and out of time. what did i think i'd find?
