Requiem

You’re a kettle looking for a lid
Caught cold
In the middle of the summer like a little kid
Got the heat
In my lungs like I almost drowned
Running, running to the other side of town
In the middle of a dream I can hear you calling
In the middle of a dream I can hear you say
I hear you knocking
But you can’t come in
So I will write you a requiem
You’ve been looking right into the sun
White light
Bet you didn’t know it shines like that for everyone
What’s your name
Where you from
Why’d you come downtown?
I been running, running, running but I never hit the ground
In the middle of a dream I can hear you calling
In the middle of a dream I can hear you say
I hear you knocking
But you can’t come in
So I will write you a requiem
So I will write you a requiem
In the middle of a dream I can hear you calling
In the middle of a dream I can hear you say
I hear you knocking
But you can’t come in
So I will write you a requiem
You said it gets better
But you didn’t say when
So I will write you a requiem
So I will write you a requiem
