|
The horse with the wings never turned up for the party |
|
And I wonder how long til he comes looking for me |
|
So I wait in the room by the river and |
|
I watch the world go by |
|
And I hear a girl cry and |
|
I notice the sound it comes from my own mouth |
|
And I hear your words "What have I done now? What have I done now?" |
|
I look to the wall and you look to the hallway |
|
And you say, "I'm sorry for whatever it is," |
|
And I feel myself groan cause |
|
I know I've lived alone with you here for years now |
|
And the scratching of the metal as you're putting on the kettle |
|
Makes my skin crawl and |
|
I feel small, |
|
And the birds they slip through the cracks in the glass |
|
And there's blood on the floor |
|
When will this day break? |
|
When will my heart ache? |
|
When will this day break? |
|
When will |
|
I find my place? |
|
Don't talk to me like |
|
I'm a shell you found on the beach |
|
And you put to your ear and you hear how clear |
|
I sound, And you say, "Sing me a song," like |
|
I've nothing better to do than sing songs for you |
|
And you hang me on the wall so |
|
I'm taller than before |
|
And I feel like |
|
I might fall but |
|
I don't I hang there quietly watching the life we lead |
|
Like it's a prize |
|
I could never win |
|
A sea I could never swim |
|
When will this day break? |
|
When will my heart ache? |
|
When will this day break? |
|
When will |
|
I find my place? |
