Shroud
Exciting and new
The lies and the truth
Still fighting for the one to be in charge
I'm trying hard to please
Falling to my knees
Seems I always have to be on guard
I'm clinging to your sleeve
Admonishment is all you have
You're praying I will sleep
Endlessly into the black
You watch the moon ascend
Imploring for my end
You let it slip out loud, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You just can't pretend, when you're wishing with a friend
And you proudly avow, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You like me to crawl
Make me feel so small
Make me dance around and then decline
I still can't recall
Why we happened at all
Seemed just like a good idea at the time
Preparing the ground
You start me digging with my hands
Excuses abound
This isn't quite what I had planned
You watch the moon ascend
Imploring for my end
You let it slip out loud, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You just can't pretend, when you're wishing with a friend
And you proudly avow, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You watch the moon ascend
Imploring for my end
You let it slip out loud, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You just can't pretend, when you're wishing with a friend
And you proudly avow, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You watch the moon ascend
Imploring for my end
You let it slip out loud, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You just can't pretend, when you're wishing with a friend
And you proudly avow, you'd like to see me in a shroud
The lies and the truth
Still fighting for the one to be in charge
I'm trying hard to please
Falling to my knees
Seems I always have to be on guard
I'm clinging to your sleeve
Admonishment is all you have
You're praying I will sleep
Endlessly into the black
You watch the moon ascend
Imploring for my end
You let it slip out loud, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You just can't pretend, when you're wishing with a friend
And you proudly avow, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You like me to crawl
Make me feel so small
Make me dance around and then decline
I still can't recall
Why we happened at all
Seemed just like a good idea at the time
Preparing the ground
You start me digging with my hands
Excuses abound
This isn't quite what I had planned
You watch the moon ascend
Imploring for my end
You let it slip out loud, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You just can't pretend, when you're wishing with a friend
And you proudly avow, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You watch the moon ascend
Imploring for my end
You let it slip out loud, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You just can't pretend, when you're wishing with a friend
And you proudly avow, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You watch the moon ascend
Imploring for my end
You let it slip out loud, you'd like to see me in a shroud
You just can't pretend, when you're wishing with a friend
And you proudly avow, you'd like to see me in a shroud
