The Room I'm Hiding In

The Room I'm Hiding In

(album: Overboard And Down - 2006)

Where once was desperation, now just medication
The bathroom walls have always been so scribbled on, just like your skin
That that's the room I'm hiding in is just a vindication

So hang the flag at half-mast for a blonde girl with a leg cast
We lay up in that unlit room and no one spoke, and no one moved
Until the air filled up with fear I've never felt my body disappear so fast

I burned your dissertation, I spurned the celebration
You'll find me down this dirty hall I'm hiding behind this silent wall
But in my darkest midnight I'll still, take an invitation
Oh, I will take an invitation, oh I will take an invitation
