Leash
Had one of those days
When you wanna try heroin,
Drunk driving,Some form of soft suicide
Sitting in silence and
Staring at ceilingsOr peeling the paint offOf things to confideMaybe somedayThe lies we've led aroundWill crawl under our bedsAnd sleep off the yearsTeach me to wiggleMy ears like that,
Show me the scarThat you got when youFell off your bike
Ask me the questionsYou never want answers to
We can re-write themHowever we likeMaybe someday
The lies we've led aroundWill crawl under our bedsAnd sleep off the yearsStop the hardwood floor's lopsided grin
Leave the dirt and dead flowers
In a brown coffee tin
Let your hand melt a hole in the frost
Peer out under a sky that looks
Just like a shirt I lost.Someday
The lies we've led around
Will crawl under our beds
And sleep off the years
