I've been staring in a trance under a wet blanket Touching myself to keep warm Sometimes I’ve fum myself Bouncing sounds across the walls, I've been writing songs with silent words Swallowing sounds that scrape and burn Measuring time by the curtains crack I've been to the edge and I've come back
(Chorus) It’s black and I forget how cold, it will soon be sweat Lost in someone else’s game I dream of waking every day She locked herself away (Oh No) What a big mistake (Oh No) She locks herself away Oh Noooooooooooo
I’ve been starving in a dress Needing more, seeming restless No sight, no sound, no taste, no touch -I’m not getting enough attention-
I never thought to mention Now a little girl grows up to question While a gutter baby silently cries On a concrete pillar to a curbside lullaby
(Chorus)
La la la la la...
I’m trying to breathe, I’m wired There’s an undeniable fighting side And the gutter baby cries On a concrete pillar to a curbside lullaby
(Chorus)
It’s black and I forget how cold, it will soon be sweat Lost in someone else’s game I dream of waking every day
