Storm Clouds

Black clouds hang over you
 Like anvils on a string
 They follow you everywhere so
 Don't stand so close to me
 They gather while you're sleeping
 And wait above your bed
 And when you open up your eyes
 They strap themselves fast to your head
 Dreamed through another starless night
 Awakened by the gloom this morning
 I keep myself buttoned tight
 These storms come without warning
 There seems to be no end in sight
 This shit could last forever
 I've been through this before
 There's no predicting weather you
 Will find your way around
 Whatever's got you down
 Whatever's got you down
 The lines across your brow
 Tell me the entire story
 I won't be listening
 While you go on about your fears and worries
 Dreamed through another starless night
 Awakened by the gloom this morning
 I keep myself buttoned tight
 These storms come without warning
 There seems to be no end in sight
 This shit could last forever
 I've been through this before
 There's no predicting weather you
 Will find your way around
 Whatever's got you down
 Whatever's got you down
 You blow into the room
 I pour myself some shelter
 I know the storm is coming soon
 I'm sensitive to changes in pressure
 I spent another sleepless night
 On your couch tossing and turning
 Sometimes I don't know why I try
 I think my neck is broken
 There seems to be no end in sight
 This shit could last forever
 I've been through this before
 There's no predicting weather you
 Will find your way around
 Whatever's got you down
 Whatever's got you down
 Can you find your way around
 Whatever's got you down
 You're bringing us all down
