Lyrics

A bitter elixir flows through my veins
A malaise and restlessness that I lack the words to explain
Resign myself to this disaster again
Suffer in silence and try not to dwell on the pain

Head on my pillow, eyes closed in vain
Anxious inventions and fictions run through my brain
Sounds of the neighborhood drive me insane
The dog barking nearby, the grumbling 1:30 train

Maybe just maybe I shouldn't complain
The nightmare I lose makes up for the strength I would gain
The nightmare I lose makes up for the strength I would gain
