lyrics

It's come apart at the seam
It needs a machine
The stitching's too hard on my eyes
I know I'd succeed if I had what I need
Instead of forever just scraping by
On the hill away over yonder, you can see past the county line
And I can't help but wonder, there must be something more to life

Reverend Jones says
It's all in my pretty little head
Grass is always greener
For foolish daydreamers
Should say thank you more often than please
When I'm down on my knees

Though I lock it shut the door opens up
Silly thoughts blow in just like the breeze
And I sweep them out, my mind fills with doubts
No I can't keep up with the breeze

Chorus

When I try to pray I can't think what to say
I'm as blank as an overcast sky
There's fuzz on the screen, the signal's too weak,
The picture, I don't recognize

My heart is a colicky child,
don't know what it wants, can't say what it needs
I can't quiet its selfish desires
And it robs me of my sleep in the middle of the night
