lyrics

Shrinking

in my tiny shrinking world
i mostly sit alone
i won’t venture from the house
or pick up any phone

in full flight from everything
with sheets pulled overhead
i want no disturbances
no more hard things said

but it can get deadly
all hunkered down and safe
locked within an airless vault
flesh begins to chafe

in my tiny shrinking world
my heart went cold and numb
i try not to think about
the hurts i’m hiding from

in full flight from everything
the time just inches by
soon perhaps i’ll disappear
grown too removed to try

yes it can get deadly
all hunkered down and safe
locked within an airless vault
flesh begins to chafe

in my tiny shrinking world
i keep them all at bay
something begs me to bust out
and crawl back to the fray

in full flight from everything
i salve my psychic skin
wincing from abrasions
boarded up within
yes i’m boarded up within

man it can get deadly
all hunkered down and safe
locked within an airless vault
flesh begins to chafe 2X
