Zookeeper

Zookeeper - Snow In Berlin lyrics

With the blueprints of an architect still searching through his pockets

For a dream maker or a chance taker

Or the will he should have written by now

But he's been thinking 'bout those ships sinking

For his whole half-lived private school life

At home silver spoons gleaming

In his eyes a vision dark as midnight in Berlin

Where we stand fearing it's all a bit much

(As great incubators ventilate

To compensate our every step and repay each breath)

And he sees buildings rising, sees mice climbing

Thinks of how the fall has come and gone

And all its color and calm now lay surrendered

To Salvation Army vendors

Life insurance witch doctors

All these poor men in rich men's clothes

And the snow in Berlin covering everything in white dress

Making us all look like such creatures tonight

And that wall is going up and coming down again

And we'll celebrate like it's the first time (not just in our minds)

As that snow piles up and he begins to look so mysterious

Like, "Oh my God, I can see him now, that ghost rider

Saying, 'Hello, spider, you're in my web now

And I will see that you're never at ease'…"

And his eyes screaming for a soul to see him

Pull him out and free him from that pitiful rabbit suit

Just drops down right in the street and lies there

Getting lighter and lighter 'til it's static in every view

And the snow in Berlin covering everything in white dress

Making us all look like such creatures tonight

Just the snow in Berlin covering everything in white dress

Making us all look like such creatures tonight

Making us look like creation's lucky bride

Making us look like such beautiful things stood up tonight
