Black Flag - SINKING lyrics

Wanting

Thinking

Sinking all the while

* It hurts to be alone

When it hurts to be alone

When it's cold outside

When it's cold inside

When it hurts to be alone

It hurts to be alone

*

When I'm feeling it

When I'm down and out

When I'm feeling it

When I'm down and out

*

All torn up

All torn down

Yeah

I'm thinking that I'm sinking

and I'm sinking all the while

*

Falling down

Falling down

I stand up

To fall back down

*

Caving in

Caving in

I think my heart

Is caving in

*

Dead air

Dead phone

Dead quiet

Sinking all the while

*

Writhing my hands

Grinding my teeth

Staring at the floor

Sinking all the while

*

Cutting my teeth on the blues

soul sinking to the bottom of my shoes

Thinking my life's a waiting Game

Staring at my grave and feeling the same

*

When I want what I want

When I want what I want

When I need it

I need it

*

When all I need

Is all I need

When I need it

I need it

*

Sinking

Sinking

Sinking

Sinking
