Waking up today
It was cold out
There's something I should say
But I can't get my head around
The bends in your brain
And your elaborate pain
Makes me tired
As an old balloon
I hold my breath
Like a penance paid too soon
And with too much eagerness
To know what is true
When air is changed by you
Makes it hollow
I don't know
Where it comes from
Where to go
When the rains come
When the rain...
Put me back in the bottle
Where the sea meets the sun
Where the bones and their rattle
It don't mean anything to no one
And I, I had a swing
When my soul was my own
I had my teeth bared for battle
Til love lost made me dull
It made me dull
It made me dull
Put me back in the bottle
Where the sea meets the sun
Where the bones and their rattle
It don't mean anything to no one
And I, I had a swing
When my soul was my own
I had my teeth bared for battle
Til love lost made me dull
It made me dull
It made me dull
