Hip Lyrics

Come in, come in, come in, come in
Inviting someone to come inside

From under these darling skies, come in
Asking someone to come in from outside

It's warm and it's safe here and almost heartening
Assuring the person that it is comfortable and secure inside

Off to a time and place now lost on our imagination, oh
Referring to a distant and forgotten era

Where you don't complain but you still do
A contradiction where the person complains despite saying they won't

And you don't explain if you want to explain
A puzzle where the person doesn't clarify things even if they want to

What you believe you say without shame, "I just do"
Confessing that they don't have a logical reason for their belief or action

To say what you mean you don't mean what you say or you do
Explaining the complexity of the communication process

Where the wild are strong
Description of a place where adventurous people are tough

And the strong are the darkest ones
Where the strongest people are the most intense

And you're the darkest one
Referring to the person as the most intense of them all

From thin and wicked prairie winds, come in
Inviting the person to come inside from harsh conditions

Here in a time and place not lost on our imagination, oh
Describing the current reality rather than a distant past

And you can't complain if you want to complain
Another contradiction revealing the complexity of communication

Where you're real instrumental or supple or sexy as hell
Describing different ways of being attractive

Where you say, "I believe" or say without shame, "I can't tell"
Explaining how belief and uncertainty can coexist

And if that's what you want
Acknowledging the person's choices and desires

Oh, then you're the darkest one
Repeating the intense description of the person
