|
Things are falling down on me |
|
Heavy things I could not see |
|
When I finally came around |
|
Something small would pin me down |
|
When I try to step aside |
|
I move to where they'd hoped I'd be |
|
Vanessa calls me on the phone |
|
Reminding me I'm not alone |
|
I fuss and quake and cavitate |
|
I try to speak and turn to stone |
|
Tilly reaches through my vest |
|
To do the thing that she does best |
|
She probes and tears my ventricles |
|
Steals my one remaining breath |
|
Things are falling down on me |
|
Heavy things I could not see |
|
When I finally came around |
|
Something small would pin me down |
|
When I try to step aside |
|
I move to where they'd hoped I'd be |
|
Stumbling as I fall from grace |
|
She needs my vision to replace |
|
Her ailing sight throughout the night |
|
Leaving two holes in my face |
|
Mary was a friend I'd say |
|
'Til one summer day |
|
She borrowed everything I owned |
|
And then simply ran away |
|
Things are falling down on me |
|
Heavy things I could not see |
|
When I finally came around |
|
Something small would pin me down |
|
When I try to step aside |
|
I move to where they'd hoped I'd be |
|
Things are falling down on me |
|
Things are falling down on me |
|
Things are falling down on me |
|
Things are falling down on me |
|
Things are falling down on me |
