lyrics

I’m lost and sending you SOS signals from the floor of the living room, where there’s not much living I feel like I can do. We have bad seams on the ceiling. I stare them and the cracks in my hands, trying to find and feel like I have a chance to save myself, but I know I can’t, or I don’t or I don’t care or I just don’t believe I can.

Is it in my head? Is it in my head? The feeling I haven’t had control, that I have no power and get pulled where the current flows? Is it in my head, that those thought-barbed-wire fences show their dominance and intimidate and distort the growth of hope?

Though I’m surrounded in love I still feel alone as I ever was. I still feel that I’m the only one who can understand my soul. I’m sure that I am unheard.

I’m an unrecognizable face. I’m an unpronounceable name.

I might have a boat I could rudder to shore. But I don’t. But I don’t.
I might have a life saving device I could tie, but I don’t or can’t or haven’t or won’t.
I might have a blanket I could cover wire and climb, but I don’t. But I don’t.
I might have a shovel I could tunnel out a hole. But I don’t or can’t or haven’t or won’t. But I don’t or can’t or haven’t or won’t.
