Starry Night - Lyrics - Zox

lying on my back i feel you breathing sucking down the ghosts into your sleep there's something in your spine that makes me nervous and the black that swells between us grows more deep i cut the world in chords making melodies from words and i'm confused again take all this abuse because i ain't got much to lose it's a starry starry night out here on hope street but hope gives way to hunger when you're poor and with pockets full of promises and poems i know that you ain't worth much anymore spoke in broken time crooked rythyms twisted rhymes and i'm confused again paint my world in blue because i've never liked to lose i don't think i want to spend another night with you i don't think i want to spend another day feeling the way you leave me to standing in the half light of the morning i watch the shadows lace across my shoes there's something in your voice that makes me nervous if i can tell we're lying why can't you? the song that's in my head is playing backwards in this bed and i'm confused again seems like i have to choose it feels like either way i lose
