I can't write
I can't sing
I can't play

My insides have been broken
My inspiration has flown away
It's hard to see all the little things


There's a universe
In a crack in the wall

Or an ant crawling across
A broken tile
And it's hard to see all the little things

When the big things get in the way

I can't eat

I can't sleep
I can't think straight
I did not know it could be like this

Some things are better off being left alone
There are things that are better left unknown


Oh hands,
Don't fail me now
They're the only things I have left

Oh fingers,
Don't let me down, now
They're the only things that aren't gone


Oh world, come
Come crashing down, now

Oh hands, don't fail me now
Oh let me become deaf and mute to this
Oh hands, don't fail me, now


I'm carrying my life in a cardboard box
Carrier bag on my back

I'm carrying my life in a cardboard box
Carrier bag on my back


Oh hands,
Don't fail me now
They're the only things I have got

Oh fingers,
Don't let me down, now
Oh hands, don't fail me now


All Hell falls
All down around me

Oh hands, don't fail me now
Oh fingers,
Don't let me down, now

Oh hands, don't fail me now
