lyrics

Speak in whispers
Paste and paper
Simple things -
My body wants to be unconcious
Now.
Padlocked doors and
Dreamless sleep are
All I need -
Take these images out of my head
I don't need changing
They like to speak in unison and
Don't remember why
I like to see the sinking sun
This calm oblivion
Quietly standing on a bridge above the motor way
It's colder here than anywhere -
All I'll ever notice are the things that I can't see.

I don't remember why we're kicking cars and smashing up each other
All the time I'll notice real fear - of what I'll think of next - I could be gratified or crippled by an easy answer
Any explanation you can give - we don't believe you

I was killing time when all the sand slipped through my fingers
I was freaking out and ageing fast while I was sleeping
There comes a time you know
I can't do this any more
If only you could see me now I really think I'd like to kick the bullshit out of you
And I won't feel anything
If you screw me down
Then I won't go anywhere
Uh -huh - that's right
Well up until this moment honey

Say slowly
Stay home

I don't remember how we ever felt the strength to keep on running -
all the time I'll notice real fear - I never understood
I could be gratified of crippled by an easy answer
Any explanation you can give - we don't believe you.

We'll tie our hands and our feet just to prove
It wasn't anything other than circles in my head
in my houe, in my room, and the types of people I always seem to meet.

(I was killing time....)

So when I'm running through the streets in nothing but a vest
When I'm breaking both my hands in a Nightclub fight
When I'm falling in love
When I'm learning something new
When I'm spending all my money
When I'm laughing uncontrollably
All I'll ever notice is

You'll try to stop me.
