I found a paper in my pocket
I’m starting to forget again
Paint me an alabaster rocket
So I remember where I’ve been
I want to save you from this
I want to make it better
I want to wake you from this nightmare that you’re living
I want to find a safe abyss
That’s deeper than this sorrow
That’s wider than the nothing that you think you’re living
You tapped your finger on the bottle
As you made circles around the room
Your words drip desperation, spiritual starvation
As the light above you begins to dim
I want to save you from this
I want to make it better
I want to wake you from this nightmare that you’re living
I want to find a safe abyss
That’s deeper than this sorrow
That’s wider than the nothing that you think you’re living
I found your picture in the paper
Your face looked like yesterday’s news
A rubber band around my finger
So I can feel the bruise
I want to save you from this
I want to make it better
I want to wake you from this nightmare that you’re living
I want to find a safe abyss
That’s deeper than this sorrow
That’s wider than the nothing that you think you’re living
I want to slap you in the face
I want to make it go away
I want to wake you from this nightmare that you’re living
I want to find a safe abyss
That’s deeper than this sorrow
That’s wider than the nothing that you think you’re living
