I'm a little bit anxious
I'm a little unsure of where to go
I'm a little kid swallowed by the shadows in the ocean and I know
It's a little bit daunting
It's a little bit scary when I'm alone
It's a little bit dark outside; when I'm uptight I call you on the phone
When we hang up I stay awake
For a while, wondering
If what you say is true-
I am flawed but fixable
When I manage some shut eye,
Oh, for all I know I might be slumbering
Although I'd rather be dead on your couch
In my bed, in my head
There's a light, but it's red
And I wander
Till waters bend around me, and surround me until I quit
What's this shining at the far end of the road?
Oh, I admit, I'd rather see the dark end of a tunnel than the bottom of the pit.
All I'm doing is aiding
All I offer to give is a helping hand
But I cannot see but two feet in front of me, so try to understand
If you're caught in a doorway
And a fire is nipping at your heel
If you're stuck on a sinking ship, enjoy your trip, and pray it isn't real
When I wake up I find that I'm
Hungry for more, unsatisfied
Oh, God, I'm blue
But it will all be alright
If it wasn't for all these uninvited visitors outside
I'd say I'm having a damn good night
In my bed, in my head
There's a light, but it's red
And I wander
Till waters bend around me, and surround me until I quit
What's this shining at the far end of the road?
Oh, I admit, I'd rather see the dark end of a tunnel than the bottom of the pit.
I'm in need of a captain
And I wish you were that for me today
I'm in need of a wax and feather
Set of wings and then I'll be okay
As long as I take off
When the sun can't burn away my dream
Don't know when I'll be back this way
Perhaps someday, don't wait
In my bed, in my head
There's a light, but it's red
And I wander
Till waters bend around me, and surround me until I quit
What's this shining at the far end of the road?
Oh, I admit, I'd rather see the dark end of a tunnel than the bottom
Tunnel than the bottom
Sunken to the bottom of the pit
