Mean Sleep

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
What can we scrape togetherWith just the flesh as evidenceHandfuls of hateAnd the bittersweet ambivalence'Cos I am pushin' cobwebsAnd I'm folding into myselfWho will find me under this mean sleep ?How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain ?How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change ?I had a mean, mean sleep over youAnd it hurts, hurts coming back to lifeYou could burn a thousand daysAnd I would need no other lightYou could die a thousand waysAnd I'd still love you back to lifeBut my needs rising angryAnd my loneliness like quicksandWho will find me under this mean sleep ?How could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain ?How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change ?I had a mean, mean sleep over youAnd it hurts, hurts coming back to lifeI am lost to the longingI am moulded by the memoryHad to shut down half my mindJust to still the space you left behind'Cos I am pushin' cobwebsAnd I'm folding into myselfWho will find me under this mean sleepHow could the clouds tease us into thinking it might rain ?How could the need deceive us into thinking things might change ?I had a mean, mean sleep over youAnd it hurts, hurts coming back to lifeComing back to lifeI had a mean sleephad a mean, mean sleep over youI had a mean sleepAnd it hurts, hurts coming back to life…
