Saturday morning wakes in a daze.
The light slices into the room
like a razor blade.
Memory falls
and the silence slithers down
like sweat from the walls.
Skin crawls.
Skin crawls.
And the ache won't shake away.
Got a head full of poison
and a heart made of clay.
And I can't get this thing clean
and I can't find my way
as I tumble from another dream
and the room begins to sway
and I need to cling to something
but you're so far away.
The pit is open wide
and so I crawl in,
so I crawl inside.
Because I'm so tired
of waiting
for you to come home.
I'm so tired
of waiting
for you to come home.
And that ache won't shake away.
Got a head full of poison
and a heart made of clay.
And I can't get this thing clean
and I can't find my way
as I tumble from another dream
and the room begins to sway
and I need to cling to something
but you're so far away.
The pit is open wide
and so I crawl inside
and so I crawl inside...
