There isn't a cure
Hear that knocking on the door, Knock, knock, knocking on the door. But it's not unlocking It's not unlocking any more. You reject the "God of the gaps" you say But your face is straight and conscience clear You return my gaze and speak and pray And gaps are all I can hear Your God has lapsed it would appear Cause gaps are all I can hear. Hear that knocking on the door, Knock, knock, knocking on the door. But it's not unlocking It's not unlocking any more. I relax my guard and you get wary so I hide myself most of the year, You laugh and claim that I'm not scary, But you don't control your fear. Your words are crap it would appear Cause you don't control your fear. Hear that knocking on the door, Knock, knock, knocking on the door. But it's not unlocking It's not unlocking any more. If I reprimand my son when he can't understand what's wrong with what he'd done when he was too young, or the ideal far flung If I failed to correct my daughter When she didn't do something she oughtta, Or she, knowing, does something awful Is there anyone who would approve? Who wouldn't move in defence against my unfatherly mood? Why would I want to be reconciled With a God who can't father a child? Hear that knocking on the door, Knock, knock, knocking on the door. But it's not unlocking It's not unlocking any more. So, hang a coat up on my door Walk a while across my floor Be here, if you want, but you better be sure Cause I'm never not lonely and there isn't a cure. I'm never not lonely and there isn't a cure.
