Lyrics
Morning comes to let the light in
Struggling with heavy eyelids
I can't get the balance right
I see only black and white
I can't recognize my own apartment
This is not the place we started
Foggy memories gripping tight
Am I stuck in day or night?
(Oh no) I can't get back up on my two feet again
(Oh no) I am crawling out of my own skin again
Twenty-something but no older
Hunting for a five-leaf clover
Patiently I'll see it through
Give me just another day or two
Now the map is upside-down
I'm spinning 'round and 'round in circles
Boning up for something new
You walk the dog, the dog walks you
(Oh no) I can't make a sound with my own voice again
(Oh no) Echoes bouncing around this tired brain again
Shifting figures in the distance
Telling me you'll never listen
I see you in the shadows there
Sliding head-first down the stairs
Water rising all around us
Waiting for the calming sound of
A mother soothing baby's cries
Can we make it through the night?
(Oh no) Someone's pulled the wool over my eyes again
(Oh no) My teeth are falling all over the floor again
(Oh no) I can hear you climbing up the walls again
(Oh no) You are turning tricks with these old bones again
