rhyme & reason

Singer: dave matthews band

oh well oh well so here we stand

but we stand for nothing

my heart calls to me in my sleep

how can i turn to it

'cause i'm all locked up in this

dark place -

and i do not know

i'm as good as dead

my head aches -

warped and tied up

i need to kill this pain

my head won't leave my head alone

and i don't believe it will

until i'm dead and gone

my head won't leave my head alone

and i don't believe it will

until i'm six feet underground

how long i'm tied up

my mind in knots -

my stomach reels

in concern for what i might do or

what i've don

it's got me living in fear

well i know these voices must

be my soul

i've had enough i've had enough of being alone

i've got no place to go

my head won't leave my head alone

and i don't believe it will

until i'm dead and gone

my head won't leave my head alone

and i don't believe it will

until i'm six feet under ground

six feet under

in y grave

lying wired and shut and quiet in my grave

leave me here

leave me here to waste here

so young and here i am again

talking to myself

a t.v. blares

oh man

oh how i wish i didn't smoke

or drink to reason with my head

but sometimes this thick confusion

grows until i cannot bear it at all

needle to the vein

needle to the vein

take this needle from my vein my friend

i said

my head won't leave my head alone

and i don't believe it will

until i'm dead and gone

my head won't leave my head alone

and i don't believe it will

until i'm dead and gone

in my grave

lying

lying cold in my grave

the reason -

my reason

take my head off this terror

the fearing won't come back

i can't see

my mind's all wiped clean

the needle

make my great escape

i seem caught in time

my head leaves me behind

body fall cold

and i see heaven
