lyrics

Well, I wrote you this song in my head
Didn't bother get out of bed
No brushing my hair, didn't comb my teeth
Just sick inside with self-belief
The black crown's coming down
And the joker's always around
A cup of tea and a first cigarette
Marking time by paper syrette

Now what you would think is a bore
Can't be much worse, out the door
Staring a hole into space
Doubting the mirror and my face

With the windows all blacked out
You can avoid time
Ameliorate all doubt
And redefine lines
With the windows all blacked out
You can avoid time
Ameliorate all doubt
And redefine lines

Writing this down to wrack my mind
Sifting the thoughts best denied
Waiting for sleep to set in
And maybe tomorrow I'll begin

With the windows all blacked out
You can't avoid time
A million breaks on time

With the windows all blacked out
You can avoid time
Ameliorate all doubt
And redefine lines
With the windows all blacked out
You can avoid time
Ameliorate all doubt
And redefine lines

Yeah, you know what I'm talking about
It's those shut-in blues

Well, I wrote you this song in my head
Didn't bother get out of bed
No brushing my hair, didn't comb my teeth
Just sick inside with self-belief
The black crown's coming down
And the joker's always around
A cup of tea and a first cigarette
Marking time by paper syrette

Well, I wrote you this song in my head
I sure as hell didn't bother to get out of bed
I'm just stuck, stuck, stuck inside, stuck inside my own head

I think I came off pretty good
