From the recording This Cold Desire
Lyrics
TERRIFIED
Hollow like a bone on a desert floor
Heavy like a stone I can’t carry no more
I can’t carry no more, I can’t carry no more
Caught like a horse on a carousel
Lost like a penny down a wishing well
I think I’ve been here before
Looks like I’ve been here before
And when I look inside
I look terrified
I look terrified
Mournful as a wind on the western plains
That’s how I feel when I hear my name
When I hear my name
Sometimes I dream of a different world
Where I emerge like a water pearl
And I am me again, and I am me again
But when I look inside
I look terrified
I look terrified
I have reached and I have fallen down
Everything I know keeps on turning,
turning round and round
And everywhere I go it seems like I’m just losing ground
Everything I know keeps on turning,
turning round and round
