White Coat

from This by Earth Suits

/

lyrics

I spent eight years sitting in a lecture hall
learning how to fix the things that break inside of other people
let myself go to shit
Now every day I wear a white coat
it grows longer every year
and it covers me completely
hide the shame the doubt and fear
You will have to shield your eyes
when I am enveloped in white

I woke up from a suffocation dream
and sat straight up in my bed
I took deep breaths from my mouth
and I wondered if I'd ever feel comfortable again
Is this just growing old
falling apart
The room's filling with water
and the doors have all been locked

We work all day
We go home
We eat something. We watch TV.
We mumble on about working, about nothing, about eating. about nothing.
And sometimes we still talk
about making something new
and a spark flickers in your eye
then it fades in a moment or two
when we're all so tired and there are just so many channels these days.

Fuck it! Come on! Let's get swept away!
We can be anything right now
and we can make anything we want
we could still make this work
the past is fucking dead
and tomorrow's much too late
and this body that I'm stuck in can't define me
let this remind me
here and now
forget who we were
let's get swept away
