[00:00.06] I'm sittin' at a coffee table unable to see straight
[00:01.17] Watchin' parallel lines unwind and undulate
[00:02.07] Behind the rain streaked windowpane the scene's bleak
[00:04.20] Another train leavin' home
[00:04.95] Conceding defeat with a low moan
[00:05.49] Hangin' in a sky made of stone
[00:06.24] Everybody's leavin' home I called my man Jerome
[00:07.29] To come meet me in the twilight zone
[00:08.13] Leave your mobile phone at home and come alone
[00:09.66] I bought him coffee and a snack
[00:10.29] Settled back started speakin'
[00:11.13] He was tweakin' with the peak of his cap
[00:13.32] While I'm seekin' to discover what it takes to stay sober
[00:14.79] Not cover my mistakes
[00:15.57] Try to maybe make sense of the evidence
[00:16.62] It's over she's gone for good
[00:17.22] Why should I lie singin' a killer's lullaby
[00:18.66] Identified by the dying ring of her goodbye
[00:20.82] The last thing you hear before your life disappear
[00:22.20] Now it just gets worse like my stomach will burst
[00:23.58] Feel like I've been cursed
[00:24.69] With seven centuries of bitter memories
[00:25.83] And inadequacies previous he's and she's
[00:27.12] I'm movin' round this old house for the last time
[00:28.35] Scene of my past crimes been here for lifetimes
[00:29.85] Hearin' the chimes of the old clock that used to mock
[00:31.32] You got eternity for takin' stock
[00:32.28] This place is like a padlock
[00:32.97] You look shocked
[00:33.33] Trust me nothing ever moves but the dust
[00:34.23] There's just us and I'm here to torment and tease
[00:35.76] And that's how it was for centuries
[00:36.69] Me and my memories till you brought the keys
[00:37.77] Took the couple of Saturdays
[00:38.97] I moved in runnin' from tragedies and boozing
[00:41.07] Seven hundred years since I came here
[00:42.69] You appear same hair same quizzical stare
[00:44.28] I couldn't get near
[00:44.97] And the sheer frustration was more than I could bear
[00:47.91] I was really cursed thought I'd been through the worst part
[00:51.00] That was just the first part just the start
[00:52.23] Every night I'd be sitting with dread breaking my heart
[00:54.30] In case the man she'd been chasin' gets to first base
[00:55.44] And I just can't escape I'm in bad shape
[00:56.46] You making love to someone else is more than I can take
[00:57.99] And so I make all the movement I can to no avail
[00:59.22] Scream and yell sinkin' deeper into my personal Hell
[01:00.99] I'm getting heated I'm sorry have another coffee
[01:02.07] I needed to release my sparrow chest
[01:02.85] From just a piece of this pressure
[01:03.87] Unless an escape route is found
[01:04.68] I'm going down underground
[01:05.28] Into lifetimes of pain it's absurd
[01:06.09] The heaviest chain is contained is the sound of one word
[01:07.38] So I'm referred back to Hell huh
[01:08.01] Just as well I hate needles an' get twinges
[01:09.87] At the thought of syringes
[01:11.13] J I'm going insane with shame
[01:13.11] I dream and watch her makin' love over and over again
[01:17.64] With what I call a farmer's swain
[01:18.33] Unintelligent pea brained retard who's d**k is always hard
[01:22.53] Oh God of course I'm jealous fellows
[01:24.90] Oversexed flexing his pec's
[01:26.34] Jesus what's he going make her do next
[01:27.87] I'm mad vex the way she gently scratches his chest
[01:29.82] You used to do that to me back in 1253
[01:34.20] Pity me while you lie with your lover
[01:36.90] I stare and suffer in despair while you ruffle his hair
[01:39.00] Unaware of who else is there
[01:39.60] I move quick I want to try my trick one last time
[01:54.48] You know it's possible to vaguely define my outline
[02:46.44] When dust move in the sunshine
[03:19.62] So I'm tryin' to change vibrate myself to near human pitch
[03:57.99] Which reminds me how I used to come unstitched
[03:59.25] And switch 'round the house in a blind rage
[04:05.52] It took years and an ocean of tears
[04:09.66] To find the key to this cage
[06:11.16] And write another stage into a new age
[06:12.15] It's difficult to gauge
[06:15.39] But I know that I'll see you again on that you may depend
[06:16.62] I just don't know how or when
[06:23.31] Sleep on my lost love on gone
