lyrics

The dark thoughts
They come creeping in like spiders
Or bedbugs
Or any number of creepy crawly things

And some days I am afraid
That these nightmares might actually happen
In a third world country
Or a neighboring city
Or in my bedroom while I’m asleep

And I am waist deep
There's a chill that’s running up my thighs
And I am neck deep
There's a chill that’s running down my spine

There was a head-on collision
At South Bay and Church today
And a crowd had gathered to watch the proceedings
Like a Memorial Day Parade

And it hurts me
And it irks me
To see a smashed up SUV
Because I’m driving home and I know somebody just left the world this way

And I am waist deep
There's a chill that’s running up my thighs
And I am neck deep
There's a chill that’s running down my spine
