Lyrics:Paul Simon Music:Paul Simon | |
The night sets softly | |
With the hush of falling leaves, | |
Casting shivering shadows | |
On the houses through the trees, | |
And the light from a street lamp | |
Paints a pattern on my wall, | |
Like the pieces of a puzzle | |
Or a child's uneven scrawl. | |
Up a narrow flight of stairs | |
In a narrow little room, | |
As I lie upon my bed | |
In the early evening gloom. | |
Impaled on my wall | |
My eyes can dimly see | |
The pattern of my life | |
And the puzzle that is me. | |
From the moment of my birth | |
To the instant of my death, | |
There are patterns I must follow | |
Just as I must breathe each breath. | |
Like a rat in a maze | |
The path before me lies, | |
And the pattern never alters | |
Until the rat dies. | |
And the pattern still remains | |
On the wall where darkness fell, | |
And it's fitting that it should, | |
For in darkness I must dwell. | |
Like the color of my skin, | |
Or the day that I grow old, | |
My life is made of patterns | |
That can scarcely be controlled. |
