Riding midnight rails on a self esteemed engine   Tapping hopelessly on plastic keys   A bottle of friendly next to me   And it never gets done, it never gets done      The midnight oil tapped clear   Lobotomy in action   Hitting walls at the turn of my head   It's a quail's call echoing in the head      The fingers move small emotion   Like ligaments strung out, taught like string   The fingers move small emotion   Like ligaments strung out, taught like string      Limp like dead fish   Trying to find water to breathe   Overworn and confused      Reaching in air for words I'd hoped to appear   Was put in the system last night, smelling up the skin   It's open like deep skies      I need lift in my head, hours in a day   I want to hide behind the dresses of women I've never met   I need lift in my head, I need more hours in a day      It works well this way   This machine like function   Eyes swollen half shut      It works well this way   Looking into walls   Fishing for humans in a moat      It never gets done   With this it never gets done      It's open like deep skies   It's open like deep skies   Falling on pillars of demon gods   Falling on pillars of demon gods      Sometimes the hand just falls on the Book of God   Clenching your teeth hoping He'd finally give a nod   Save me, please   Save me, please
