Cathedral

Robyn Hitchcock · I Wanna Go Backwards [2007]

Do you wonder like I do

What goes on inside of you?

In the cathedral of the mind

All the worshipers are blind



Like a toilet from outside

A cathedral from inside

There behind your open face

Lies an awful lot of space



And if I ever look into your open eyes again

I'll remind myself to stare until I'm looking through your eyes



When I'm hurt, you feel the pain

You've been in my head again

You're projecting onto me

What you'd like yourself to see



Now the clock is beating fast

Every moment wanders past

And fades away

Then comes back another day

Do I go or do I stay

Inside your mind?
