Her you are...
From morning to night I st ayed out of sight
Didn't recognize I'd become
No more than alive I'd b arely survive
In a word...ove rrun
Won't h ear a sound
Fro m my mouth
I've spen t too long
On the i nside out
My sk in is cold
To the h uman touch
This blee ding heart's
Not be ating much
I murmured a vow of silence and now
I don't even hear when I th ink aloud
Ex tinguished by light I turn on the night
Wear its darkness with an em pty smile
I 'm creeping back to life
My n ervous system all awry
I'm wearing the ins ide out
Look at him now he's paler somehow
But he's coming round
He's starting to choke it's b een so long since he spoke
Well he can have the words right f rom my mouth
And with these words
I can se e
Clear t hrough the clouds
that co vered me
Just gi ve it time
then spe ak my name
Now we can hear
ourse lves again
I'm ho lding out
Fo r the day
When all the clouds
Have b lown away
I'm wit h you now
Can speak your name
Now w e can hear
Ourse lves again
