i'm losing me
you tie your shoes too tight, you know, 'cause it
feels better that way. And when you don't, all
night you are dreaming, you walk, laces streaming
down the street behind you
a river of tangled string, you are unraveling and
no one else seems to mind. You keep it to
yourself, stay numb and act fine. You wear the
truth under your sole, like a pebble it makes you
limp and sway, but it will out someday.
take it from me it is no use washing your hands
so often they are clean and cracked. You never
get your old skin back, once you have loved like
that you're a river of tangled string...
a river of tanled string, you are unraveling and
no one else seems to mind. You keep it to
yourself, stay numb and act fine. You wear the
truth under your sole, like a pebble it makes you
limp and sway, but it will out someday.
