Sleeping on the Noose

Here I go again, sleeping on the noose,
Cutting feelings loose,
Exploring catacombs.
Here I go again, wearing a brave face,
Longing for my hiding place,
So I can disappear without a trace.
And you ask me how I’m doing
Time after time.
Well, paint me yellow,
Paint me yellow,
Paint me yellow and call me fucking sunshine.
Here I go again, fighting waterfalls,
Ignoring all your calls,
Climbing up the walls.
Here I go again, swimming upstream,
Fighting in a dream,
Practicing primal scream.
And you ask me how I’m doing
Time after time.
Well, paint me yellow,
Paint me yellow,
Paint me yellow and call me fucking sunshine.
Did you think I got to choose
And I chose sleeping on the noose?
Did you think I got to choose
And I chose sleeping on the noose?
Did I really choose
Sleeping on the noose?
And you ask me how I’m doing
Time after time.
Well, paint me yellow,
Paint me yellow,
Paint me yellow and call me fucking sunshine.
And you ask me how I’m doing,
But I don’t think you really care.
And you ask me where I’m going.
I ain’t going nowhere.
I’d never choose
Sleeping on the noose.
