In Walks a Ghost Lyrics

I tried to tell you when I woke up
But you just didn't take it in
You told me all about your dreaming's dead
And I just smiled a fainted grin

The baths refuse to take on water
The mirrors lost their sense of time
The couch is taking on a shaping wait
The phone's forgotten how to ring

Each explanation down on paper
Falls at the first fence on my ...
The air's so dense it feels like midnight
And I don't know how to begin

The day always starts the same way
Six o'clock and all seems well
And as my eyes descend the bedroom walls
The lungs contract
The head begins its slow light-handed spin
