lyrics

On awakening this morning
I get the feeling something's missing from the earth
not a dream but like a dream much is manginess
until I awake and tell all my friends
they've all been reading up on dreaming recently
lucky me
but when I reach for her I cannot seem to reach

Gone away as given to me
what a thought to even think
let alone sing
she isn't healing
my hollow platitudes are only making things worse
and worse
and don't call me friend anymore
no more of you sneaking off to my bed again
you're worse than a bee hive stuck in my head

Going off about something troth
the seams of your words are overwrought
the pulse in your rarely slow orate
it turns
into sleeping pills
into pleasure coming to you in
looking into what didn't work
let alone it

He isn't feeling my mellow attitude
it's only making things worse
My alarm goes off first
yours is sleeping in s
