The cross in the middle of the room But the ghost who sleeps in the kitchen sink And the one who shines my shoes all put the money in a bag And left the house before the blizzards came
The summer's got his teeth in me again But my bones are sweating and my clothes are gone And I can't get enough to drink So now the place to be is where the moonlight never blinks And I'd love to explain but truth be told I'm not sure what to think So now I'm going to bed
I woke up with my head stuffed full of fog Beyond it out into the livingroom Until I couldn't see the floors or walls And as the sun cut through I finally found a place to lay The skeleton in my closet left his home Now he sits up on the rooftop and shouts my secrets with a megaphone And as the shit hit the fan I packed my bags and caught the train And I'd like to point the finger but there's no one left to blame Now there's nothing left to protect me from the rain And it's really coming down..
It's the thought that burns you out It's the hook that drags you under And it's the grin that rats you out It's a snowstorm in the summer It's the sky that spoils the cloud It's the burn marks on your mother And it's the thought that burns you out It's the hook that drags you under and so on..
Boring and twisting.. a moth stuck in the ground Has made a house of your lightbulbs Mottled and crooked A hiccup in the sound Is like a smudge on the tv Like a crick in your neck Like mistakes that you never regret
It's the look upon your face It's the rat that lost the race It's the shivers in your spine It's the heart you'll never find It's the names in wet cement It's the things you can't forget It's the fear of growing old It's the life you'll never know It's the scratches in your teeth It's the time you left for weeks It's the age when you didn't care, darling
Cutthroat and ambling The help that's never around Just like a wish on your birthday Tired and empty Attacks on what you found Is like a spot on invention Like a bug in your food Like a thing that's too good to be true.. and so.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
