Terrified Lyrics by The Devastations

Coal

2006

And in my broken empty home
Come lay your weary head
Don't you cry when you're alone
There's always room for more once you're dead
Anyone here with two good ears would better listen up
For I have lived so many years that by now I'm pretty loosened up

So when you come around, you'll go back again
And I will keep my hands tied up until then
And when I hear your pretty lies
And I see your walking frame
I get so terrified of ending up the same

And if I ever get through or am I getting through to you?
You can throw the shit out to the dark
There's nothing good to sell
Go start a fire with these arms
If you swear by me I promise I won't tell
Yes, I'm writing to the core
I'm running second to the wrist
'Cause you're all children of a whore
But mother always be just what
Was busy

But did I mention the moon or the stars up in the sky?
Lover with a faithful heart until the day we die
Well there'll be time enough for that
If it ever comes to that
I get so terrified
But exactly where it's at
And if I ever get through or am I getting through to you?
If I ever get through, or am I getting through?

So face a valentine
Of my fearful room
And you will understand when I break your heart and bones
That I'm in love with you
Though I never talk with you
I get so terrified
Of what just I might do to you
Am I getting through to you?
Am I getting through to you?
I get so terrified
Of just what I might do to you
When I get through
I get so terrified
