Open the door, uh
Friend of mine
I'm here now, it's time

I am an under water mammal
banging abalone to open the half shells
I am a hummingbird, banging into the window
Trying to escape to skies so blue
I am cat, crying at the door, painfully awaiting your hand and more
You have dropped me to the rocks
to open me up
scavenged my soul
in the name of love
but I am trapped here
Tantalus at the gate
Awaiting a glimpse of you
A song I can't place

I am waiting to see you again
I am behind closed doors
encrypted in your box
Not Pandora
Nor Mary, Queen of Scotts
Will you crack the code
Speak the words to open the door
Tell me what I must say or do
to find my way back to you?

Wikipedia:
Ossifrage ('bone-breaker', from Latin) is an older name for the bearded vulture, a scavenger famous for dropping animal bones and live tortoises onto rocks to crack them open. The 1993–1994 effort began the tradition of using the words "squeamish ossifrage" in cryptanalytic challenges.
