lyrics

The sun went down some time ago. Now it's getting colder than I'd want to be outside without a coat. I know you want to know me, too. But I don't even know me. I'm a basket in a three-piece suit. It's like I'm scared for the time and I'm paralyzed. God damn, it feels good to be alive. Just need it sometimes to remind me that, god damn, it feels good to be alive when the storm clouds clear and still here. It's cold as fuck now. I'm not well dressed. The fire went out an hour ago. It was bored of hearing me talk. I get up and start to walk. I'll make a B-line for your bed where I'll lie awake all night trying to slow the stampede of thoughts in my head. It's like I'm scared for the time and I'm paralyzed. God damn, it feels good to be alive. Just need it sometimes to remind me that, god damn, it feels good to be alive when the storm clouds clear and still here. Okay, please close the shutters. I'm storming off again, but I'll be fine once I descend. I just need the night to figure out what the hell is wrong with me and why I could never let you help. It always feels like I'm scared for the time and I'm paralyzed. God damn, it feels good to be alive. Just need it sometimes to remind me that, god damn, it feels good to be alive when the storm clouds clear and still here.
