lyrics

My friend and bandmate Porch Cat (aka Chan or The Chan-saw) wrote this song, and we play it in our band The Ragshakers. This is my solo interpretation of it.

******

I’m so tired
That I can’t sleep at night
For fear that I just might
Sleep forever
So tell me
That I am living art now
I’ve got a broken heart now
It’s a thing of beauty

I’ve seen these walls and these floors
I’ve been in this bathroom before
Maybe it will pass with the moon
And the ocean will come for me soon

I’m so hungry
But I’ve got no desire
I’ll light myself on fire
Just to see at night
I’m taking
All my coffee black
My tongue’s starting to lack
The means to taste the world

I’ve seen these walls and these floors
I’ve been in this bathroom before
Maybe it will pass with the moon
And the ocean will come for me soon

Maybe it will pass with the moon
Maybe it will pass with the moon
Maybe it will pass with the moon
And the ocean will come for me soon
