The Reeling

We dug these holes we crawled into, now they're my home

(My home)

Now here I cannot feel the wind, can't feel the rain or cold

(The rain or cold)

And I believe in gentle harmony

How I loathe all this obscenity

Is this the way my life has got to be?

Have I a single opportunity?

Look at me, oh look at me, is this the way I'll always be?

Oh no (Oh no)

Now I'm dreaming somebody would swiftly come and kidnap me

Oh no (Oh no)

Everyday I lie awake and pray to God, "Today's the day"

Oh no (Oh no)

Here I am, oh here I am, oh when will someone understand?

Oh no (Oh no)

And all at once I feel this

Oh how it clings to me (Clings to me)

It reels and calls me towards it

Confounding destiny (Destiny)

And I can feel the madness, inch-by-inch

The more I run, the more I am convinced

I've colored all these like the branch's twist

Just like we settle in the foggy mist

Look at me, oh look at me, is this the way I'll always be?

Oh no (Oh no)

Now I'm dreaming somebody would swiftly come and kidnap me

Oh no (Oh no)

Everyday I lie awake and pray to God, "Today's the day"

Oh no (Oh no)

Here I am, oh here I am, oh when will someone understand?

Oh no (Oh no)

Look at me, oh look at me, is this the way I'll always be?

Oh no (Oh no)

Now I'm dreaming somebody would swiftly come and kidnap me

Oh no (Oh no)

Everyday I lie awake and pray to God, "Today's the day"

Oh no (Oh no)

Here I am, oh here I am, oh when will someone understand?

Oh no (Oh no)
