Long Time

I’ll sleep alone
'cause I cannot fall in love
I cannot fall at all
I’m anchored down
Feeling stoned
And I think I bit my tongue
I think I broke my jaw
On the ground
I can barely get up off the floor
Feeling stoned
But I’m going in just this once
I’m sucking down all the love
Can’t you tell?
Bars and cones
Your eyes are made out of sun
Your skin will taste just like blood
Just like rust
I can barely get up off the floor
Gravity has brought me down so low
It’s been a long time
I’m past the point of no return
My brain is trashed; my fingers burn
I took the bait; I’ll sit and wait
Forget the lessons that I’ve learned
The pavement soon will divide
The earth will pull me down
The ash is caught in my lungs; the chemicals in my blood
It’s been a long fucking time; it’s been a long time
I can barely get up off the floor
Gravity has brought me down so low
