Shrink Wrapped

Closed your eyes and left me here

And now I'm jealous of your sleep

I made some noise to wake you up

It seems you've drifted out of reach

And I'm not sure if you meant what you said, but that's OK

'Cause it still sounded good when you said it anyway

I'm not sure where you are when I turn and stroke your face

You don't move anymore so it must be getting late

I'm not tired even now

I think I'm glad to be awake

I've met these fractured thoughts before

They grin and wander round this place

I'll get up, all I find is the people that I hate

Real life disappears and gets shrink-wrapped in its place

I get up, watch TV, helps me feed my vicious streak

Real life disappears then we watch

The spooks on the news playing chess with the cynics

Hope you die in the arms of your shrinks in your clinics

Now it's gone

5 a.m., we smile and plan our revenge

By the end the night has found its true friends

Up all hours sketching a thousand great schemes

Maybe I'm too tired to colour them in

Closed your eyes and left me here

And now I'm jealous of your sleep

I made some noise to wake you up

It seems you've drifted out of reach

And I'm not sure if you meant what you said, but that's okay

'Cause it still sounded good when you said it anyway

I get up, watch TV, helps me feed my vicious streak

Real life disappears then we watch

The spooks on the news playing chess with the cynics

Hope you die in the arms of your shrinks in your clinics

Now it's gone

5 a.m., we smile and plan our revenge

By the end the night has found its true friends

Maybe I'm too tired to colour them in

5 a.m., we smile and plan our revenge

By the end the night has found its true friends

Up all hours sketching a thousand great schemes

Maybe I'm too tired to colour them

Get what I want then I'm not sure I want it

Get what I want then I'm not sure I want it

Get what I want then I'm not sure I want it

Get what I want then I'm not sure I want it anymore
