'Coz I'm feeling sober now.
Plus I'm feeling so burnt out.
Caught in iron chains
Lying, aching on the floor.
It's cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor.
Condensation has one dry
My conversation has run dry
Conversation has one try
Condensation has run dry
Despise you lead them to me
Despise you that control me
Fat a** saw a man brought to life.
I thought I saw a man brought to life.
He ate corn, he ate a pound, and he was dignified
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He shelled me what it bust to cry
Well, you couldn't be the man I have torn.
You showed me what it was to cry
Well, you couldn't be that man I adored.
I am naked on the floor
Lying naked on the floor
I don't care, I have no luck
I don't give a flying f***!
I don't care, I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much.
I don't listen all that much.
I don't miss it all that much.
I don't listen all that much
There's just so many things that I am such a tore.
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things that I can touch, I'm torn.
I saw a man all alive
I saw a man brought to life
I should have seen just what was there and not some horny lie
I should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
I thought I saw a man Fourth of July.
I thought I saw a man brought to life.
I thought I saw a man more to life
I thought I saw a man brought to life
This part is nothing to do with the misheard lyric, but when I saw the video to this song on VH1 when I was a child, I thought the song was called Tom and that was the name of the man Natalie was singing about, but I had misread the name of the song.
I thought I saw a man who brought you life.
I thought I saw a man brought to life.
I thought I saw a man who wouldn't lie
(Later)
There's nothing there, he used to lie
(Later)
I'm wide awake and I can see the purple sky is torn
I thought I saw a man brought to life
(Later)
There's nothing where he used to lie
(Later)
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
I'm a leather face.
I'm all out of faith.
I'm a letter-face, this is how I feel.
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel.
I'm a lettuce face, this is how I feel.
I'm all outta faith, this is how I feel.
I'm a lettuce face
I'm all out of faith
I'm a little late.
I'm all out of faith.
I'm a little plant
This is chlorophyll.
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel.
I'm a lot of faith.
I'm all out of faith.
I'm a lot of things.
I'm all out of faith.
I'm all lettuce-faced.
I'm all out of faith.
I'm all out of safes.
I'm all out of faith.
I'm already gone
or
I'm already done
I'm already torn
I'm another fake
I'm all out of faith
I'm cold and I am chained
Bound and broken on the floor.
I'm cold and I'm ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor.
I'm cold and I am changed
Founding broken on the floor.
I'm cold and I'm ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor.
I'm cold and I am shaking
Lying lake on the floor.
It's cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor.
I'm cold and I am shamed
Flying naked through the door.
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor.
I'm cold and I am shamed
Found a-gropin' on the floor.
I'm cold and I'm ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor.
I'm cold and I am shaved
lying naked on the floor
It's cold and I am shamed,
lying naked on the floor
I'm cold and I'm ashamed, yet I'm naked on the floor.
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor.
I'm cold and I'm asleep
Bottles broken on the floor
I'm cold and I'm ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor
I'm cold as iron chains
Bound and broken on the floor
I'm cold and I'm ashamed
Bound and broken on the floor
I'm cold in iron chains
Lying naked on the floor.
I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor.
It's cold and I am chained,
lying naked on the floor
It's cold and I am shamed,
lying naked on the floor
It's cold beneath my veins right now.
But you crawled beneath my veins, and now...
Lying aching on the floor
Lying naked on the floor
My conversation has one drive
My conversation has run dry
My inspiration has one drive
My inspiration has run dry
Nicole and I have changed
lying naked on the floor
I'm cold and I am shamed
lying naked on the floor
So I guess a fortune tells us right
So I guess the fortune teller's right
So I guess the fortune tell us right.
So I guess the fortune teller's right.
So I guess the fortune teller's right
Should have seen just what was there and not some horny lie.
So I guess the fortune teller's right
Should have seen just what was there and not some holy light.
So I guess the fortune teller's right
Should have seen just what was there
And not some horny night
Which crawled beneath my veins.
So I guess the fortune teller's right
Should have seen just what was there
And not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins.
The beast is dead.
The peace is dead.
The pieces there in my soul
The piece is dead in my soul.
Torn, I'm fifty.
Torn, I'm filthy.
Well, you couldn't be that man that I had torn.
Well, you couldn't be that man that I adored.
You are Lady A
I am Annie Hall
You're a little late
I'm already torn
You couldn't be that man I just bought
You don't seem to know, seem to care
What your car is for
You couldn't be that man I adore
You don't seem to know, seem to care
What your heart is for
You troll! You claim you saved me!
Control You claim you saved me.
You're a little 8.
You're a little late.
You're a little aged, I'm already old
You're a little late, I'm already torn
You're a little late,
I'm already Tom
You're a little late,
I'm already torn
You're a little late,
I'm already tall
You're a little late,
I'm already torn
You're a little late, I'm already done.
You're a little late, I'm already torn.
You're my middle name
You're a little late
