10,000 year storm came
Washed all the old world away
Creatures big and small displaced
Unlikely connections were made
Mr. Mollusk at the cellar door
He knocks and cracks his brittle shell
Saturated yard above
Damp and darkness
Down below
I am much more than a mollusk
You are much more than a slug
Lets settle in this lonesome basement
She let him in with just a shrug
You let me in your cellar door
Believed the things I had to say
You let me in your cellar door
Please do not run away
They stayed inside
Cement and cold
Hey they learned about each other's darkness
Understood the world outside
A different kind of progress
Hey, at the wedding
The squishy-taled bride said
You are the sculptor of my better self
Yeah at the wedding
The witnesses
Were all the statues that they had chiseled
Themselves
Themselves
Themselves
You let me in your cellar door
Believed the things I had to say
You let me in your cellar door
Please do not run away
Was getting crowded underneath
With all the alabaster figurines
She looked at her love
She said its time
To leave all this leave all this
Quiet desperation behind
Behind Behind Behind
You let me in your cellar door
Believed the things I had to say
You let me in your cellar door
Please do not run away from me
