The Carpet Crawlers

           D                Em    
The crawlers cover the floor in 
                  D
the red ochre corridor
For my second sight of people, 
Em                                
they've more lifeblood than before
   D

                          Em     
They're moving in time to a heavy 
             D
wooden door
                                 Em
Where the needle's eye is winking, 
closing on the poor

     F#m                      
The carpet crawlers heed their 
         A
callers
                               G  A
We've got to get in to get out

We've got to get in to get out

                          Em     
There's only one direction in the 
                  D
faces that I see
                            Em   
It's upward to the ceiling, where 
                          D
the chamber's said to be
                                 Em
Like the forest fight for sunlight,
                              D
 that takes root in everytree
                                Em
They are pulled up by the magnet, 
believing they're free

Mild-mannered supermen are held in

kryptonite
             D                  
And the wise and foolish virgins 
                          G
giggle with their bodies glowing 
bright
      D                            
Through the door a harvest feast is
        Em
 lit by candlelight
                D                  
It's the bottom of a staircase that
         Em

The porcelain mannikin with 
       Em
shattered skin fears attack
              D                 
And the eager pack lift up their

pitchers - they carry all theylack

The liquid has congealed, which has

               D         
And the tickler takes his
