Everynight Lyrics

Every night when I come home

A ghost stares at the phone

And the dust greets me from above

The sediment of what I have become

Every night I watch you all

Every day I know

Every night when I come home

Shadows start to grow

And the sun that stings from the west

Silhouettes you

My hungry eyes retract

Afraid the shadow's true

Afrid of fading too

Every night hear a rusty hinge

Make a sound of the dead below

Every night when my mind kicks in

The hands of time are ticking, won't let go

And like the dream in the silhouette

When the masquerading cabbage said,

"Well look at you, won't you look at you

Just 'cuz you have a head

you think you're always set to know..."

[Stop]

Every night try to walk away

But hands of time just pull me back again

Every night at the appointed time

The calling mind won't go

Every day in the same old way

It's the sound of winding down

My starving ears react to the unrelenting howl

Every night come crawling in on your hands

From where I don't know

Every night with the monster lens

Steal a photograph of my soul

Every night with the six-inch heels

Strut strug right into my room

Every night feel the hands of time

Turn me back to the naked gloom

Oh I don't know, oh I don't know...
