lyrics

When I feel good, it lasts a while and then it ends, it ...
Puts me in a pit because -- because I have forgotten by then
What it was like when I was shut down, protecting myself
What it was like when I was shut down, protecting myself

This is the sound -- of the pressure building up in your skull
Here comes the blood -- coming up right through the wall
This is the sound -- of the pressure building up in your skull
Here comes the blood, here comes the blood, here comes the blood -- coming up right through the wall!

That's what I was thinking, when you were asleep
The birds were chirpin' & I think you were asleep
Your eyes were shifting and then your throat -- was making that sound
I love your shifting and I like -- the sounds you make
You know that well.

Taste the dirt -- as you're climbing up the mountain
Taste the salt -- as you're swimming in the sea
Stand at the top, breathing so hard, and know that you are not alone in the thoughts that you think --
By yourself
Thoughts that you think --
By yourself
And what you feel is real
What you think is true
What you always suspected,
Is
Real -- real and true
What you always suspected,
Is.
.
