lyrics

I walk out with a lie in my pocket
{But I can't see it}
This is just what he needs
He doesn't get it
{I may not ever}
Sometimes the days can be so simple
I want to scream
{I want to scream]
Sometimes the days can be so long
{Can be so boring, so I try to dream}

Those days are gone but I can't stop thinking about them
I light a candle, but the future is too close
Sometimes it makes me so weak, that my eyes get black underneath
Sometimes it makes me so sick, I smile

I walk in with a gift in my pocket
{But you don't show me}
Funny, I can never tell
If you are watching
[But I am listening]
Sometimes the nights can be sleepless
Can be so long
{can be so bright}
Tossing around in my sheets
Stealing the blankets of the whole city

I hate you so
But I can't stop thinking about you
I turn the light off
Jesus and Mary Chain turned on
And sometimes it lulls me to sleep
"Darklands" and "Down on Me"
sometimes I just stay awake all night
all night
