[00:00.00]
[00:10.42]You've been living awhile
[00:13.40]In the front of my skull, making orders
[00:18.82]
[00:21.86]You've been writing me rules
[00:24.84]Shrinking maps, and redrawing borders
[00:30.18]
[00:33.03]I've been repeating your speeches
[00:36.93]But the audience just doesn't follow
[00:41.63]
[00:44.78]Because I'm leaving out words, punctuation
[00:50.04]And it sounds pretty hollow
[00:53.12]
[00:56.72]I've been living in bed
[00:59.46]Because now you tell me to sleep
[01:03.86]
[01:08.11]I've been hiding my voice and my face
[01:12.41]And you decide when I eat
[01:15.75]
[01:19.60]In your dreams I'm a criminal
[01:23.05]Horrible, sleeping around
[01:27.30]
[01:30.42]While you're awake I'm impossible
[01:34.87]Constantly letting you down.
[01:39.69]
[02:28.86]Little porcelain figurines
[02:32.19]Glass bullets you shoot at the wall
[02:36.86]
[02:39.79]Threats of castration for crimes you imagine when I miss your call
[02:48.19]
[02:51.79]With the bite of the teeth of that ring on my finger
[02:58.07]I'm bound to your bedside, your eulogy singer
[03:03.68]I'd happily take all those bullets inside you
[03:09.45]And put them inside of myself
[03:14.36]
[06:14.48]Someone, oh anyone
[06:19.62]Tell me how to stop this
[06:23.88]She's screaming, expiring
[06:28.94]And I'm her only witness
[06:33.81]I'm freezing, infected
[06:38.76]And rigid in that room inside her
[06:44.37]No one's gonna come
[06:47.97]As long as I lay still in bed beside her
[06:56.62]
