Sweat and shiver
Sweat and shiver
Don't you know that I never really loved
'Cause the sun don't rise in the east
I'm looking through the eyes of a vanishing mask
My eyes are glazed, I'm pretending to sleep
My eyes are glazed, I'm pretending to sleep
My eyes are glazed, I'm pretending to sleep
Whisper me cold blazing light
Whisper me cold blazing light
It's early morning, keep the curtain closed
I been out all night and I lost my name
Sweat and shiver
Sweat and shiver
Sweat and shiver
(Won't you let me, won't you let me
Won't you let me be)
Sweat and shiver
(Won't you let me, won't you let me
Won't you let me be)
Hands and knees, crawling on the floor
Cigarette burning on a cockroach wall
Tear and suck, said my skin crawls
Chewing on a mattress, screaming up the walls
Don't you know that I never really loved
'Cause the sun don't rise in the east
I'm looking through the eyes of a vanishing mask
My eyes are glazed, I'm pretending to sleep
My eyes are glazed, I'm pretending to sleep
My eyes are glazed, I'm pretending to sleep
Whisper me cold blazing light
Whisper me cold blazing light
Like you I could live on a grain of sugar
Sweat and shiver
Sweat and shiver
Sweat and shiver
(Won't you let me, won't you let me
Won't you let me be)
Sweat and shiver
(Won't you let me, won't you let me
Won't you let me be)
Scratch me, won't you scratch my back?
I said, I'm tired, I'm tortured, I'm drowning
I'm looking through the eyes of a vanishing mask
I can't sleep, I can't hold my thoughts
The Cadillac man keeps standing in the hall
Keeps banging his fist on my motel wall
Won't you scratch me? Won't you scratch my back?
I said I'm tired, I'm tortured, I'm drowning
Can't sleep, I can't hold my thoughts
(Cadillac man keeps standing in the hall)
Can't sleep, I can't hold my thoughts
(Keeps banging his fist on my motel wall)
Can't sleep, I can't hold my thoughts
(Won't you scratch me? Won't you scratch my back?)
Can't sleep, I can't hold my thoughts
(I said I'm tired, I'm tortured, I'm drowning)
