Only Talking Sense

there'a a wild thing in the woolshed and it's keeping me awake at night a devil in the closet and a feeling I'd prefer to hide he is religion he won't hear me when I cry for help he has a vision of me but I am somebody else We talk the pillow there are times when I'm tied up to the fence only talking sense there's a mirror lake before me but I'm frozen when it's time to jump it's like maybe I'm afraid of what I'll find when independence comes you steel my shadow you make my blood run dry we are true only when we talk to the pillow there are times when I'm tied up to the fence only talking sense did you suffer as a child that's why you want me to cry you are afraid of me that's why you're so unkind you won't deny it when your child is tied up to the fence and I'm only talking sense lonely when we talk to the pillow and your child is messed up in the head I'm only talking sense
