What's happening to me
I'm dying from the inside
Body hurts too much to feel
And pressure adds to pain
Deliver us from evil
Straying out of sanity

Why can't you let me be?
Is nothing else important?
Does my mind mean more to you?
'Cause if I carry on
Deliver us from evil
Screaming for your vanity

Will darkness turn to light?
Will darkness turn to light?
Can someone wake me from this nightmare?

Here we go
Here we go

The tank is empty; let it dry
I'm suffering, a passion ending
So the world ceases turning
The tank is empty; let it dry

So now I hope you see
I'm nothing more than human
Making plans for enemies
But here we go again
Deliver us from evil
Crawling back to insanity

Will darkness turn to light?
Will darkness turn to light?
Can someone wake me from this nightmare?

Here we go
Here we go

The tank is empty; let it dry
I'm suffering, a passion ending
So the world ceases turning
The tank is empty; let it dry
I'm suffering, a passion ending
So the world ceases turning
The tank is empty; let it dry
I'm suffering

What's happening to me
I'm dying from the inside
Body hurts too much to feel
And pressure adds to pain
Deliver us from evil
Through evil
Pressure adds to pain
We're evil
We're evil
We're evil

Will darkness turn to light?
Will darkness turn to light?
Can someone wake me from this nightmare?

Here we go
Here we go

The tank is empty; let it dry
I'm suffering

The tank is empty; let it dry
I'm suffering
A passion ending so the world ceases turning
A passion ending so the world ceases turning

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,
