My nose bleeds and flares like a torch   Cement cracked weeds scar my grandma's porch   I'm not the sort to turn away      Like spider veins choke David's right peck   My eyes are wider than a Coke bottle neck   I jump the deck to hit the hay      I can sleep like nobody's business   Just please don't let me dream   I cannot bear to bear witness   To the scary thoughts that haunt me      My legs are restless and kick like an ass   And there on the wall a slack jaw Billy bass   Turns and takes me to the river      The bumps under my eyes form U and me   The crease in the sheets meant I slept till three   And awake in a river      I can sleep like nobody's business   Just please don't let me dream   I cannot bear to bear witness   To the scary thoughts that haunt me      I never sang that I wanted to be haunted   That wasn't me, I don't drink whiskey   But of my beds, oh my rebellious beds   Are empty, are empty   Are empty now   Are empty now   Don't tempt me now
