I've been here for a while
Mark the days on the drywall
Feel my body going numb
Set a plate on the table
Matching chairs made of maple
Heavy drapes block the sun
When strange things start to creep in
I turn the TV on
'Til the feeling's gone
And for a while forget that I'm alone
Spending all my days
Staring into space
And slowly watch the world just melt away
Know this house down to a science
Which floorboards break the silence
Walking blindly through the dark
If I never leave this place
Then I'll never have to face
Any pain nothing else has to change
Fossilized in the paint
I turn the TV on
'Til the feeling's gone
And for a while forget that I'm alone
Spending all my days
Staring into space
And slowly watch the world just melt away
I turn the TV on
'Til the feeling's gone
And for a while forget that I'm alone
Spending all my days
Staring into space
And slowly watch the world just melt away
Slowly watch the world just melt away
(Slowly watch the world just melt away)
Slowly watch the world just melt away
(Fades away but I just stay the same)
Fades away but I just stay
(And slowly watch the world just melt away)
