Catgut

I couldn't dream
But I didn't care
I'm just breathing in the smoke that's so much sweeter than the air

I'll never leave
I wouldn't dare
Found a home in these old bones, and I'm not going anywhere

I take aim, but I miss my mark
And there's no pain when it all goes dark
When I don't see you there, well I, I just fall apart
My world falls apart

I wanted to scream
And I wasn't scared
To press that blade against my throat and drop my blood out everywhere

But what would that mean?
It sure isn't fair
To put my hopes into the hands of someone drowning in dеspair

I take aim, but I miss my mark
And there's no pain whеn it all goes dark
When I don't see you there, well I, I just fall apart
My world falls apart

I couldn't dream (I couldn't dream)
I hadn't for years (I hadn't for years)
No more room inside my head, so they came pouring out like tears

I wrote 'em all down
I sang them all out
Just shouting at my fears 'til none were left to shout about

I'm taking my shot
With a thousand yard stare
I will fly into the wind, and I hit nothing but the air

I take aim, but I miss my mark
And there's no pain when it all goes dark
But then I see you there, and that, that just melts my heart
Don't let me fall apart

I needed to sleep
I wanted to dream (when I left my mark)
I wanted to shout
I needed to scream (when it all goes dark)
I wanted relief
I wanted to share (that just melts my heart)
I needed someone there to hold my hand
And guide me through the gears of the machine
