So now the bringer of unease has reappeared He has dared to show his face within our walls His visage hidden in the mouldy earth and his fingers in the waters I had calmed His intrusion is a presence in the air and the fire is a nuisance to our hearts and he's showing off the secret little thoughts we kept apart And then the trap will spring Nip our heels and make us bleed Just as we found our ease pops a monster out Behold the travesty! Get that monster out of here! He is steadily uprooting all our plans, letting loose the sordid demons we had bound Turning all our dainty gestures upside down and misplacing all the footholds we had found Every corner holds a shadow to expose, every closet has a skeleton to show, and he's proudly re-displaying all we worked so hard not to know And then the trap will spring Just around our time of need I fear the change he brings Get that monster out of here Behold the travesty! Get that monster out of here! I will mask the wounds I could not heal while you set your resolve We'll be laughing at some joke we played while our options dissolve It is only fate, my love Who could wear it down? Behold the travesty! Get that monster out of here!
