lyrics

-ROOM FULL OF ADDERS-

I've been waiting in a Room Full of Adders.
I've been sleeping in a Room Full of Adders.
~
I think I'm waiting for someone,
I'm not really sure.
Someone to come a release me,
Open the door.
I've been waiting for a lull in the conversation
So I can let myself out
I'm dying to leave this room.
~
I've been waiting in a Room Full of Adders.
I've been sleeping in a Room Full of Adders.
~
I've been waking up at midnight,
Baby, it's not alright,
It's never alright,
Have you ever seen a man with a burning brain?
~
I've been thinking about the future,
Pulling at my sutures,
Picking at my scabs,
I don't expect them to heal,
I don't expect you to feel for me.
~
I've been waiting in a Room Full of Adders.
I've been sleeping in a Room Full of Adders.
~
Late at night I hear the gentle hissing under my door.
If you try not to focus on it,
It's really not that bad...
~
I've been waiting in a Room Full of Adders.
I've been sleeping in a Room Full of Adders.
