Intangible Holds

Photo developer

Let me live

The only ones you show me

Are negative

I feel I'm spending too much time

In the dark

I'm trying hard not to give in

(I'm trying hard not to give in)

This feeling that the ship is sinking

And I guess I've been struggling

With all the intangible holds that embrace us

I did it again

I spoke too soon

My words grow wings

Fly around the room

And you shoot them down

With eyes like .22s

As I wait for time to undo

I'm trying hard not to give in

(I'm trying hard not to give in)

This feeling that the ship is sinking

And I guess I've been struggling

With all the intangible holds that embrace us

The pupil's growing place in the iris

And how I dream of swimming in the black hole

Of the eye

(Ooh)

Of the eye

(Ooh)

Of the eye

(Ooh)

Of the eye

Sink deep, fall asleep, let it die, calm the river

Sink deep, fall asleep, let it die, calm the river

Sink deep, fall asleep, let it die
