My Favorite Song

Can't see with you all around
Can't follow now where you are bound
A rough sketch of the shape we're in
A still-life of what is still missing
I'm in your old t-shirt
Skin so tender it won't react
I'm on this stretcher
Motionless, flat on my back
Send my body home
Even if you're still my favorite song
I know that I've stayed here for too long
All the anger has given way to sadness
It's over the dog has died
And you know to me everything's a sign
I can't even write this tune
Without wondering how it sounds to you
And our tempo was always fast and violent
And I want to pull the plug
Now that we're slow and almost silent
Send my body home
Even though you're still my favorite song
I know that I've stayed here for too long
All the anger has given way to sadness
We slip and slide
A straightjacket ride
Are you satisfied
I lost circulation
Slapped myself until it stung
I lost circulation
Send my body home
Even though you're still my favorite song
I regret I've stayed here for too long
All the anger has given way to sadness
I lost circulation
Slapped myself until it stung
I lost circulation
A monumental drag
Sent home in this body bag
A monumental drag
