Before this visit turns conjugal evermore Maybe tonight, oh-oh-oh-oh [Verse 2] So my half is waitin', filed to a pulp Used insomnia's been cleansin' with floods I got a pain inside that'll rip through the very fabric of time (time, time, time, time) 'Cause I've been with you before God gave me sin I've got to get born, just so you know [Chorus] There's too many reasons, too many reasons Too many reasons, too many reasons Too many rea-, oh, oh no, oh no, oh no Yeah, too many rea- [Bridge 1] You set the silver down to guard me from the weak You check the spelling for nothin', nothin' You set the silver down to guard me from the weak You check the spelling for nothin', nothin' You sent yourself the flood [Refrain 1] All of this time, bedsore containment Where am I now that the music has faded? All of this time, bedsore containment Where am I now that the music has faded? [Bridge 2] And I'm nowhere near the place you sent me here to breathe But I'm drawin' closer to the present And I'll find a space with no memories I've got a second chance to inhabit the livin' [Bridge 3] If Goliath won't speak, I'm blinded by heaven When will your Eden come die? If the liars that blink are bound by the sender Trinkets you gave have all rusted down [Refrain 1] All of this time, bedsore containment Where am I now that the music has faded? All of this time, bedsore containment Where am I now that the music has faded? [Refrain 2] You better steal this chance to give birth to more You'll wear those healin' damns down to the plug [Instrumental Break] [Refrain 1] All of this time, bedsore containment Where am I now that the music has faded? All of this time, bedsore containment Where am I now that the music has faded? [Refrain 2] You better steal this chance to give birth to more You'll wear those healin' damns down to the plug
