Deep Waters

4:06Turn me on taps of hot water Melt all of my ice and file my corners Soften the edges, smooth resistance Steal of all my drinks Insist, I ought to have none Sit on my hands till they're numb and my defences crumble one by one Stay strong And stay well Think I forgot what it was like This effortless elegant hell To be here, with you there Letting my eyes poison my mind by daring to dwell in possibility you staring at me Like blue dangerous sea I'm done Turn me on like a television flick through my mistakes and indecisions I am right and wrong and in last place To somebody who reads you in the right way I'm done Cut out my tongue I'll be dumb I'll be as quiet as the day is long Fill the bathtub with cold water, Steal all of my drinks insist I ought to have none
