The Reeling
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We dug these holes we crawled into now they're my home
Now here I cannot feel the wind, cant feel the rain Oh No
And I believe in gentle harmony
Well how I loathe all this obscenity
Is this the way my life has got to be?
Have I a single opportunity?
Look at me Oh look at me is this the way I'll always be
Oh No, Oh No
Now i pray that somebody will quickly come and kidnap me
Oh No, Oh No
Everyday I lie awake and pray to god today's the day
Oh No, Oh No
Here I am Oh here I am Oh when will someone understand?
Oh No, Oh No
And all at once I feel this, Oh how it clings to me
It reels and calls me towards it, confounding destiny
And I can feel the madness inch by inch
The more I run the more I am convinced
A color all these like the branches glimpse
Just like the saddle in the foggy mist
Look at me Oh look at me is this the way I'll always be
Oh No, Oh No
Now I pray that somebody will quickly come and kidnap me
Oh No, Oh No
And everyday I lie awake and pray to god today's the day
Oh No, Oh No
Here I am Oh here I am oh when will someone understand?
Oh No, Oh No
Look at me Oh look at me is this the way I'll always be
Oh No, Oh No
Now I pray that somebody will quickly come and kidnap me
Oh No, Oh No
And everyday I lie awake and pray to god today's the day
Oh No, Oh No
Here I am oh here I am oh when will someone understand?
Oh No, Oh No
