The Animal Won*t Sleep

You give her precious little things to divert her attention away from you
A head so full it can no longer think
The clouds are thickening by the minute
I want to take her place...
(Circles of colored smoke descend upon my smiling face)
I fear I*ll fall from grace...
(Shadows of complete indifference are all around me)
That look can take the soul away
How can she fight off the inevitable
The master key cannot be seen or heard
It lies beneath a crust you*ll never crack
An inch is much too deep...
(Circles of colored smoke descend upon my smiling face)
The animal won*t sleep...
(Shadows of complete indifference are all around me)
