|
You're shaking bad in your sheet |
|
Convulcing like you didn't eat |
|
You don't know what's more scary, |
|
Your door open or closed. |
|
"Do I look like a dead body?" |
|
Your jumping jaw asked me (?) |
|
With the funniest smile I've ever seen |
|
Your soul was coming out your eyes. |
|
Piles of clothes and photographs |
|
Fill the floor where I collapse |
|
The walls grow blue and |
|
I'm trying to lift my head. |
|
Now I'm dying in this living room |
|
My stomach turns to sand |
|
Yeah, why do I fight the good times |
|
Like I'm sure that I'll be damned... |
|
And I fear what I've done |
|
Means I've lost what I love |
|
Hardwood floor carry sounds |
|
Carry slow to my ears |
|
It's the words I can't recognize |
|
But I'm trying hard to hear |
|
Cause my eyes can't find the things |
|
That they're looking for down here |
|
And brown leaves are covering |
|
Another wasted day this year. |
|
The lights strung out across the yard |
|
Remind me of a time when I tried |
|
To be a light, ya know, god I try to shine. |
|
But the cross seems so high tonight |
|
And glory I can't find. |
|
Oh could you tilt in so you're leaning down |
|
Or would you pull me back inside... |
|
And I fear what I've done |
|
Means I've lost what I love |
|
So carry me home |
|
To the door beneath the sand. |
|
So carry me home |
|
To the sounds of angel bands |
