Head Cold

(album: Sunlight - 2020)

Well, get in trouble and then get out of it
Babe, you wouldn't know the half of it
Cut off a helping hand, then eat it
If it's bad for me, l feed it
Call on my sister, she's a way away
Stand in the doorway in a heavy haze
Family like a dose of penicillin
That gave me a rash when I was two and now I never miss them
I never miss them

Well, I'll find time and I'll stop drinking
I'm still sleeping, at least that's something
Your head turns when I start speaking
Away, towards, it makes no difference

Stare at the ceiling with a steady gaze
Tossing and turning while the shuffle plays
Thinking of you under a head cold
I'll be dreaming of you until I get old
'Til I get old

Well, I'll find time and I'll stop drinking
I'm still sleeping, at least that's something
Your head turns when I start speaking
Away, towards, it makes no difference

Under, I'm overgrown
Well, I can't fight it
Well, I'm wired
In a headwind gale of family history
Repeating
Well, I mean it

Well, I'll find time and I'll stop drinking
I'm still sleeping, at least that's something
Your head turns when I start speaking
Away, towards, it makes no difference

I find time
Well, I find time
Eh, I find time
Yeah, I find time

Yeah, I found time and I'm still drinking
I'm not sleeping, but that means nothing
Your head turns and I start leaving
Away, towards, it makes no difference
