lyrics

I hear it's quite easy to slip under my skin
Pull out and repaint the sort of person I've been
But all it takes is the weight of a dress on the floor
For me to no recognize my face anymore

And the hollow taste on the back of my tongue
Has filled me up full to the brim, and I'm done
Don't feed me anymore! My soul's been sick for days
So please clinging clock won't you tick this time away

I think I remember there was smoke on my breath
From the mouth of a flame who had burnt out my chest
And I believe sleep would come easy if I were one of those folks
Who was made of a mightier mettle than most

And to say that I'm not trying man, that must be a joke
'Cause every kite that I try flying feels like it's tied to my throat
I know these words won't come easy 'cause my lungs move so fast
Am I fishing for trouble with no lifelines to cast
And I feel beaten to rubble from that overhand clash
I need some time, a day, a couple is that too much to ask?
