The Thread

It's got my head in a knot again And my feet are sweating deep beneath the sheets My belly's tied like a shoe lace But I bit my fingernails right to the skin And I feel myself spinning It's so hard to rest when the walls keep screaming at me I find it hard to sleep There's a strobe in my mind every time I shut my eyes There's a lightbulb in my mouth and a battery in my throat Waiting for it to burn out but there's a battery in my throat There are ashes on my tongue and burning in my lips There's a burning in my lips, there's a burning in my lips I'm losing the thread again I hit my head against the floor I'm uncomfortable, it's unbearable I'm not comfortable, it's not comfortable I'm losing the thread again I'm drowning in my bed I'm uncomfortable, it's unbearable I'm not comfortable, it's not comfortable Losing the thread again My eyes are taped wide open I'm uncomfortable, it's unbearable I'm not comfortable, it's not comfortable
