lyrics

The Treadmill

I’ve laid upon this bed before
and worn these sheets threadbare
the candle low, the leaky steam
this house of ill-repair

The curtains torn - the light breaks through
it dances with the dust
that settles slowly - finest coat
of aged grey-skinned rust

I've said I do a thousand times
T'was true but twice at best
and now this jaded pillow talk
lies yellowed in my chest

the same old disappearing act
the same old rules apply
to each until his needs are met
from those who will supply

So here we go with senses red
and fire-torn rips of thigh
I stand inside this blackened heart
the treadmill of desire

The dying breath of needless love
the bleeding and the pain
The broken-hearted rollercoaster
treadmill wins again

I've laid upon this bed before
and worn these sheets threadbare
the candle low, the leaky steam
this house of ill-repair
