Reveries

Light spills in through the window

And I watch the dust as

It drifts through the sunbeams

Oh, while you stand cold in the kitchen

And all you've been wantin' collects in

The space behind your eyes

But I still wonder when my teeth went

I used to fear nothing and

Now I just contemplate

The light spills in through the window

And you watch the clouds in the

Distance and know we're outta time

You don't owe me

You don't owe me a thing

I have always been lost

It's a comfortable place

I don't owe you

I don't owe you a thing

You were always just

Something that I could never save

Time stops and all my old nightmares

Are standing before me

I wonder how they ever did their jobs

And I lay on the carpet

And sift through my reveries

Try on the ones that still bite

Sometimes I wonder where you are now

And if you ever found some happiness or

Just another way to kill the time?

But I knew when this started that

I was never permanent

Was just another stop along the line

You don't owe me

You don't owe me a thing

I have always been lost

It's a comfortable place

I don't owe you

I don't owe you a thing

You were always just

Something that I could never save
