I'm ill with a fever, I feel like a child I lay in the dark 'til morning came And it's so unoriginal But I feel it worse at night And I know it's not terminal But I'm near half dead with fright And freezing cold
But sooner than wake up To find it all unchanged I'll sleep through the day till the daylight ends 'Cos it's so familiar As it comes around again The same taste to everything The same unbroken chain That still remains
With morning I rise, In dream that won't leave me, You're sad, naked and pale
And you're reaching for the rail
You took a look inside, how could you peel away Or braek the shell, the hurt you've hidden so well For all your days
And you're going down As you slip beneath the waves, Won't make a sound Won't even leave a trace before you
I hear an appalling sigh from the street below And it's creeping fear congealed in stone That paves the crazy road And all are succumbing and they look so hopelessly At the heartbreak, it's easy to deal with, Just take these and you'll really never feel it
