i'm sick and sad
my mouth and throat taste like coffee all the time
i lose sleep over all this
but really i'm just in my bed

she's gone to my head
what else can i do

i have another cup
i watch tv or put on a vinyl

i play
but mostly it's to shut up my head
screaming a melody so i don't just scream

at night it starts getting spooky
now i've got a responsibility
i'm not sure if she would understand
maybe

i'm sure she closes her eyes at night
about the time that mine are staring wide
i've got the fire
my fingers are burning
my head is sparking
i don't know what's right

i'm a man
yeah, yeah i am
but the moon still looks like a cloud
like it could blow away

it's not romantic, it's just scary



this town sort of moans at night too
i hear the train coming and i'm paralyzed

what am i waiting for
i could burn this ocean down tonight
it'll wash the world in steam

every time i try to connect the dots that aren't there
every time i see that thing

(everybody's going to heaven
i wrap all my dreams in the foam of the sea
i'm calm

everybody's going to hell
i sleep and i sleep and i sleep i sleep 'cause
i'm gone

how can you see with eyes bigger than your head
you wrap all your dreams in the land of the dead
there's nothing to do with my can't-get-lost blues
i'm still here)

yeah, just give me a sign
i need help so i don't whisper.
