Lyrics

[00:12.34] Every single night
[00:14.32] I endure the flight
[00:15.94] Of little wings of white-flamed
[00:18.28] Butterflies in my brain
[00:20.13] These ideas of mine
[00:21.45] Percolate the mind
[00:23.35] Trickle down the spine
[00:24.98] Swarm the belly, swelling to a blaze
[00:27.56] That's where the pain comes in
[00:30.41] Like a second skeleton
[00:34.32] Trying to fit beneath the skin
[00:38.30] I can't build the feelings in
[00:41.84] Every single night's a light with my brain
[00:50.08]
[00:54.18] And I say to her
[00:55.85] What'd I say it to her
[00:57.76] What does she think of me
[00:59.61] That I'm not what I ought to be
[01:01.39] That I'm what I try not to be
[01:03.03] It's got to be somebody else's fault
[01:06.52] I can't get caught
[01:08.56] If what I am is what I am, cause I does what I does
[01:12.33] Then brother get back, cause my breast's gonna bust open
[01:16.42] The rib is the shell and the heart is the yolk and
[01:20.13] I just made a meal for us both to choke on
[01:24.19] Every single night's a fight with my brain
[01:30.53]
[01:35.68] I just wanna feel everything
[01:43.02] I just wanna feel everything
[01:50.62] I just wanna feel everything
[01:58.06]
[01:58.46] So I'm gonna try to be still now
[02:01.96] Gonna renounce the mill a little while and
[02:05.83] If we had a double king sized bed
[02:09.23] We could move in it and I'd soon forget
[02:13.22] That what I am is what I am cause I does what I does
[02:17.10] And maybe I'd relax, let my breast just bust open
[02:20.98] My heart's made of parts of all that surround me
[02:25.02] And that's why the devil just can't get around me
[02:28.69] Every single night's alright
[02:31.96] Every single night's a fight
[02:36.35] And every single fight's alright with my brain
[02:43.00]
[02:47.91] I just want to feel everything
[02:55.22] I just want to feel everything
[03:02.85] I just want to feel everything
[03:10.38] I just want to feel everything
[03:17.97]
