lyrics

when you wake up in the morning
what's the first thing that you do
do you stare at the ceiling
do you contemplate your own
thoughts of you
do you miss the feeling
the ability to feel at all

and isn't it suspicious
that the ceiling
seems lower and lower
each day
isn't it strange it's got claws
and teeth
and it contemplates
your possible taste

and it whispers to you
of the things
that you've long forgotten
and knows your dreams
from the night before
it knows your dreams
from the night before

when you finally drag yourself
out of bed
and you leave your room
in a haste
do you remember
throughout your day
that it's missing you dearly
and it howls and cries

for you to come back
for you to come back
for you to come back
for you to come back
for you to come back
for you to come back
for you to come back

for you're its only friend
the only one who listens
the only one

who always comes back
who always comes back
who always comes back
who always comes back
who always comes back
who always comes back
who always comes back
