constant knot

how much would you bet

that if i tried hard enough

i would spontaneously combust

i wish i could disappear

and run away from all of my fears

i think i'm coming undone

so stay the night

i promise that i won't bite

'cause without you there

i don't think i could close my eyes

how do i end up this way

a constant knot in my gut

tied with uncertainty and with lust

a classic case i suppose

a haunted man who can't out run his ghosts

they're in my skin and my bones

so stay the night

i promise that i won't bite

'cause without you there

i don't think i could close my eyes

and now i sing.
