[00:18.586]There’s a light bulb dangling from string
[00:22.976]It’s slowly swaying up over my head now
[00:28.186]As I jot down the words that’ll never be sung
[00:32.841]And wait for my headache to numb
[00:37.596]And the wind sounds as if the world’s sighing
[00:42.341]And the moon’s just a torn fingernail
[00:47.111]As the TV flickers and hums by the wall
[00:52.081]And I wait for my eyesight to fade
[00:56.531]
[01:03.586]It’s so damn slow
[01:06.196]So, So, So
[01:13.401]It’s so damn slow
[01:16.234]And the bright-eyed choke on ambition
[01:20.651]And the old folks circle their graves
[01:20.651]And the young ones are busy destroying their names
[01:30.576]And you’re still just wasting away.
[01:35.051]I sit and watch the screen for a message
[01:39.841]Some kinda sign that says we’re OK
[01:44.726]But the screen stays blank till I turn the thing off
[01:49.876]And wait for my conscience to break.
[02:13.721]
[02:20.396]It’s so damn slow
[02:22.956]So, So, So
[02:29.981]It’s so damn slow
[02:33.321]I hope you’re learning to listen
[02:37.626]And I hope you’re learning to stay
[02:42.201]And I hope you find what you’re missing
[02:47.246]And I hope that you’re making you’re way
[02:52.501]I’m a headcase if I don’t keep moving
[02:56.931]And my head hurts if I don’t sit still
[03:01.676]It’s an itch that I’ll never stop scratching
[03:06.606]It’s a hole that I’ll never quite fill
[03:11.221]
