I’m just trying to numb the pain, Jesus
I’ll be back again in a little while
I can’t take reality, cos reality doesn’t give a fuck about me
Maybe you still do, maybe
I think you’re crazy, maybe
I don’t know
I’m just drifting away
For a little while
Fragments of icebergs
Slipping into the sea
Melting
Leaving what’s left of me
To wash away.
Maybe I’ll be happy? Without me?
Maybe you’ll come back and save me?
In a little while, just a little while,
Drifting out to sea.
