Claustrospelunker

[Words & Music: Ted Kirkpatrick]
 If a stone holds you down
 Keep your head above ground
 Though the foothold can be merciless
 In a world not your own
 Its the wieght of the stone
 Holding me, holding you
 Very fast, quite fast
 Its not the wieght of the stone that's holding you down
 Its the way it fascinates your mind
 And just because it causes you to fall
 Don't mean it tempts me very much at all
 I can see that it feels like a millstone is tied around your neck
 But if you come clean and say,"I don't have it together"
 You can still keep your faith in check
 3, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14 feet
 No spineless fellow here
 Down below 100 more and not a sign of fear
 X marks the spot at 145 a stone dislodged held him fast
 How could he know while now alive
 13th day would be his last
 They tried and tried to bring him to the surface in vain
 If a stone holds you down
 Keep your head above ground
 Though the foothold can be merciless
 For 12 more days the foothold was merciless
 With no possible means of ingress or egress
 In the end a paradox was found
 The beast that held him was a 10 pound stone
 Are you afraid - are you afraid?
 That where he takes you is a cold, dark lonely place
 Where it's hard to find his face - hard to find his face
 In a world that is not your own
 In a world not your own - it's not the wieght of the stone [Repeat Line]
