Asylum

[Verse 1]

Contained in my cotton crib

Where I feel no turbulence

The ocean sleeps upon a shelf

And it feeds my apathy

But I can feel it in the night

Like rain upon my skin

Inside a winter

Would you begin to splinter

If I decide to recognise my thorns

[Chorus]

Cause everytime I see your face in a cloud

I feel no violence

So tilt the water

Til it turns me around

To my own asylum

Dry in the day

And fading away in the night

I feel the sun before it's light

And it fades away into the night

I was afraid, I feared myself

I cleared the shelf

And killed the shame

But I can feel it in the night

Collect the rocks

And throw them over borders

To shake the muddy waters

And clear myself

From hiding every thorn

[Chorus]

Cause everytime I see your face in a cloud

I feel no violence

So tilt the water

Til it turns me around

To my own asylum

Dry in the day

And fading away.........

And we grow in a garden

Where all that we know

You're just a fool for him

Cause everytime I see your face in a cloud

I feel no violence

So tilt the water

Til it turns me around

To my own asylum

Dry in the day and fading away

Dry in the day and fading away

Dry in the day and fading away

................ In the night
