I've been reading books when no one's lookin'

I've been listenin' to the sirens in the night

Robert says I'm goin' straight to hell, yeah

If I hang around here I just might.

And I'd like to take some medicine

And like to drink some wine

I'd like to wake up numb like all my friends

There's a road to where I came from

It gets longer all the time

There's a road to where I'm goin'

It never ends

And my moon, it always sways

And my guitar always plays and plays

Drowning in the days

Drowning in the days

Drowning in the days

Drowning in the days

I've been writing fairy tales on postcards

Writing down the story of my life

Carrie says I make everything so hard

Carrie says I'm difficult; she's right.

And I'd like to take some medicine

I'd like to take you home

I'd like to get that woman off my mind

Well I like your pouty lips

I like your pert little bones

But I'm sleeping with the porcelain tonight

And my cloud, it always rains

Ken's feedback always fades

Drowning in the days
