lyrics:
Lethargy
trapped me in
split me off
from where I’ve been
and where I’m at
where I should be
a distant purring
comforting me
constant wailing
got to retreat
make way for livin,
self-pity‘s in need
barricading
my passionate ways
keeps me from heading
towards where my heart stays
tossin and turnin'
in my bed, at the
end of the worst
nighmare I’ve had
l ain’t good at loosing
begging the ground
politely to open
can you open the ground?
and swallow me down
lethargy, you‘re
far way off
don’t get to close
you should get lost
lethargy,
how you dare
we don’t get kindly for
your type around here
tossin and turnin'
in my bed, at the
end of the worst
nighmare I’ve had
l ain’t good at loosing
begging the ground
politely to open
can you open the ground?
and swallow me down
I got to get back like Loretta and Jojo
no use in following a hooded mojo
that ends up in smoke, when caught-up and undressed
I got to get back to what‘s left in my chest
tossin and turnin'
in my bed, at the
end of the worst
nighmare I’ve had
l ain’t good at loosing
begging the ground
politely to open
can you open the ground?
and swallow me down
