The Smith Street Band - Nightmare lyrics
[The Smith Street Band - Nightmare lyrics]
It’s 7 AM and I have nothing to say
Countdown the minutes til you motor away
Every action has an equal
Or opposite reaction
You should write that on your hand
We sit so snug in the tension getting angry
At things I don’t trust myself to mention
Examining the intricate detail of
The stain on
The ceiling pleading with you to understand
That I’m not working for the government
I’m not working for the man
And I am also scared of everything
And I think we should still make plans
You’re here now you’re gone and
I watched everything change
I got new sheets my
Furniture got rеarranged and
I tattooed a few things on mysеlf
Just cause I am sleeping
On new stains doesn’t
Mean I don’t lie awake with old pains
My new life so big and so empty makes
Everything I own seem so damn small
And I’m not working for the government
And I’m not working for the dole
And I also want to fix everything
And I think I’ll help you stand tall
Push me up against the bedroom wall
And everything is so much
Better now than before
And why don’t I feel any
Better than I did before?
Called me to talk about your nightmare
And I wanted to but didn’t care
Called me to talk about yourself again
Called me to talk about yourself
Wanted to tell me about your dreams
And the inconvenience of mine
Called me to talk about yourself again
Called me to talk about yourself
I’m not working for the government
I’m not working much at all
I am also scared of everything
And I think I’ll help
Countdown the minutes til you motor away
Every action has an equal
Or opposite reaction
You should write that on your hand
We sit so snug in the tension getting angry
At things I don’t trust myself to mention
Examining the intricate detail of
The stain on
The ceiling pleading with you to understand
That I’m not working for the government
I’m not working for the man
And I am also scared of everything
And I think we should still make plans
You’re here now you’re gone and
I watched everything change
I got new sheets my
Furniture got rеarranged and
I tattooed a few things on mysеlf
Just cause I am sleeping
On new stains doesn’t
Mean I don’t lie awake with old pains
My new life so big and so empty makes
Everything I own seem so damn small
And I’m not working for the government
And I’m not working for the dole
And I also want to fix everything
And I think I’ll help you stand tall
Push me up against the bedroom wall
And everything is so much
Better now than before
And why don’t I feel any
Better than I did before?
Called me to talk about your nightmare
And I wanted to but didn’t care
Called me to talk about yourself again
Called me to talk about yourself
Wanted to tell me about your dreams
And the inconvenience of mine
Called me to talk about yourself again
Called me to talk about yourself
I’m not working for the government
I’m not working much at all
I am also scared of everything
And I think I’ll help
