White Room
What's it say about me
My most persistent fantasy Is to live in a white room for free No guitar, no phone, no pens, just me Me getting used to the things I see When all empty time stares back at me And says, what will you do so you aren't so tired What will it take to be more inspired What will you do, will you get up and move, will you ever want more than a clean white room? Where the days are all alike The seasons alike There goes your life What did you like? Gotta lotta voices in my little head they swell and they burp and they fill me with dread A room full of people, a scene-full All cheerful and beer-full and talking an earful I am just me-full my glass not nearly full You know I get down one whole sea-full Where the days are all alike The seasons alike There goes your life What did you like? Little blue bottles and fireflies Sleeping bags Blue eyes They always remind me Won't be long till they find me Won't be long, won't be long, won't be long… I am seeking a lonely life A white room in my head at night Where all these voices can step aside They can drive, drive, drive…. |
