lyrics

fine I'm fine its circling round the inside of my splintered mind
Try, i try but my thoughts only fray my outlines.
Chorus
She's alway slipping from my hands
She's always living her regrets

Verse 2
walls are white as her jacket as tight as her jacket constricting collapsing
Theses pills their dimming and damning her mind's screaming I hear it through the hall.

Bridge
she sees shadows on the wall when here lamp shade Falls
The orderly He comes stumbling he can't seem to clean her up
Those claws they're tightening her eyes are widening
to those shadows that hold her neck.
