PINK FLOYD - Wearing The Inside Out lyrics

rate me

From morning to night I stayed out of sight<br>Didn't recognise what I'd become<br>No more than alive I'd barely survive<br>In a word...overrun<br><br>Won't hear a sound<br>From my mouth<br>I've spent too long<br>On the inside out<br>My skin is cold<br>To the human touch<br>This bleeding heart's<br>Not beating much<br><br>I murmured a vow of silence and now<br>I don't even hear when I think aloud<br>Extinguished by light I turn on the night<br>Wear it's darkness with an empty smile<br><br>I'm creeping back to life<br>My nervous system all away<br>I'm wearing the inside out<br><br>Look at him now<br>He's paler somehow<br>But he's coming round<br>He's starting to choke<br>It's been so long since he spoke<br>Well he can have the words right from my mouth<br><br>And with these words I can see<br>Clear through the clouds that covered me<br>Just give it time then speak my name<br>Now we can hear ourselves again<br><br>I'm holding out<br>For the day<br>When all the clouds<br>Have blown away<br>I'm with you now<br>Can speak your name<br>Now we can hear<br>Ourselves again<br><br>He's curled into the corner<br>But still the screen is flickering<br>With an endless stream of garbage to<br>...curse the place<br>In a sea of random images<br>The self-destructing animal<br>Waiting for the waves to break<br><br>He's standing on the threshold<br>Caught in fiery anger<br>And hurled into the furnace he'll<br>...curse the place<br>He's torn in all directions<br>And the screen is still flickering<br>Waiting for the flames to break
