lyrics

Mouse in a bowl made of
Glass in the hall by the den
You are so tiny do you
Think I am crueller than sin?

I've found living under a
Glass bowl incredibly zen
The heat's left me dazed and the
Lights are like stars shining in

Where will you go if I
Lift up the walls of your cell?
Back to my pantry to haunt me and
Crawl through my bran?

My eyesight is fading no
More I'll be raiding your shelf
The world's spilling open with
Diamonds in reckless expanse

As I open the door in my mind
I come back again

Mouse in a bowl you've
Outlasted the rest of your friends
Heaving a sigh as you
Look to the sky in your head

The tunnels, the nesting it's
All come to rest in the end
Here in a bowl made of
Glass in the hall by the den
