Burrow your head and kill all the lights
The cockroaches bury their dead in the night
And they give birth again, all the thoughts in your head
And they haunt you again and again
In the morning they find you again
Walking around with your hands at your side with
Your eyes on the road and your thoughts in the sky
And you'd just end it all for a second of quiet
They whisper and moan again
They burrow a home again
Cupid's arrow is now lodged in your spine
Making every move that you make just a bit out of time, time
Retrograde, petrol run empty, I'm dry
And I'm crawling and I'm just running more and more behind
Stubborn steel boots, heavy chains at my feet
With the rain in my clothes and the blistering heat
And I'd give anything just to lay down and die
Yet I get up and I try
To push and to stay alive
Melodies trapped in the spaces inside of my brain
Where the creatures lie dormant and hide
And they come out to play at the end of the day
When I'm trying to close my eyes
They scream and they whimper and cry
Cupid's arrow is now lodged in your spine
Making every move that you make just a bit out of time
Retrograde, petrol run empty, I'm dry
And I'm crawling and I'm just running more and more behind
