lyrics

I thought I heard a whisperin'
As I came through the door
There were clothes piled high on the bed
And a pair of sneakers on the floor
Everything was totally still
It kind of creeped me out
But I thought I would wait awhile
If only to discover what this was about

What am I staring at
It looks pretty lifelike to me
But there's something about it
That makes it not what it's cracked up to be
Trompe l'oeil
Different rules apply
Is what I'm seeing totally real
Or is it just a trick of the eye

Everything is self-contained
No need to go anywhere
Don't ever have to shower or shave
Or think about cutting my hair
What is now always is
And always will forever be
It's as still as a painting
And it'll be still for eternity

I know that I must be safe
Everything is in its place
These are my favorite books
Sitting on my bookcase
Don't think that I will ever leave
Where would I roam
I know that I am welcome here
'Cause there's no place like my home
