A drop of silence

There’s got to be some way out of here
There’s got to be some way out of here
Like an ocean snake
I slithered in twine
And played in your tears
Like they were brine
They said, “Just take some more of this
And you’ll feel better, love.”
Oh, what a pair of eyes!
Sadder than blue
Richer than blood
Deeper than truth
I cursed
I prayed
I prayed, and then I cursed some more
But I can’t deal with anything
If you make me cry
Oh, just to be an ice cube in your glass!
Oh, just to be an ice cube in your glass!
My sinews, they burn
For your touch;
To be drank into your gut
They said, “Just take some more of this
And you’ll feel better, love.”
Oh, what a pair of eyes!
Sadder than blue
Richer than blood
Deeper than truth
I cursed
I prayed
I prayed, and then I cursed some more
But I can’t deal with anything
If you make me cry
Take some more of this
And you’ll feel better, love
Oh, what a pair of eyes!
Sadder than blue
Richer than blood
Deeper than truth
I cursed
I prayed
I prayed, and then I cursed some more
But I can’t deal with anything
If you make me cry
