Peter Buck - Life and How to Live It lyrics

[Verse 1] Burn bright through the night, two pockets lead the way Two doors to go between the wall was raised today Two doors, two names to call your other and your own Keep these books well stocked away and take your happy home [Chorus] My carpenter's out and running about and talking to the street My pockets are out and running about and barking in the street To tell what I have hidden there [Verse 2] Burn bright through the night, two pockets lead the way Two doors to go between the wall was raised today Raise the walls to hide these flaws, the carpenter should rest So that when you tire of one side the other serves you best [Chorus] [Verse 3] The hills ringing hear the words in time, listen to the holler Listen to my walls within my tongue Can't you see you made my ears go tin The air quicken tension building inference suddenly Life and how to live it Raise the walls to hide these flaws, the carpenter should rest So that when you tire of one side the other serves you best Read about the wisdom wall, the knock-knock-knock A secret knock, one hammer's locked, the other wisdom's lost [Chorus][x2] [Outro] Listen, listen to the holler If I write a book it will be called Life and how to live it
