[Verse 1]

Renewed and denuded I lie here

Awake to the consequence of less

I can mount this all within a word

The body is a table, however pendulous


[Verse 2]

How salacious was my valley?

The timing was not nearly right

Dress it all up in the words of the body

In the compost of whispers and mice


[Verse 3]

Rubbish strewed me; it’s gone

Nothing knew me; I’ve won

Rubbish strewed me; it’s gone

Nothing knew me; I’ve won


[Chorus]

How wide was the mark?

How wide of the mark were we?

Did we really have to pull it all apart

Just so that we could see?

How wide was the mark?

How wide of the mark were we?

Did we really have to pull it all apart

Just so that we could see inside?


[Instrumental]


[Chorus]

How wide was the mark?

How wide of the mark were we?

Did we really have to pull it all apart

Just so that we could see?

How wide was the mark?

How wide of the mark were we?

Did we really have to pull it all apart

Just so that we could see inside?


[Outro]

See inside

See inside

See inside
