Girl Laying Down

I know a girl laying down

She's sleeping weeks at a time

And when she wakes up she watches TV

Counting cracks in the ceiling

No, I don't know what she's thinking

So I give up waiting for someone, waiting

Talking to someone, staring

I never come around

I never come around

I left her fifteen years behind

Girl's laying down

Never come around

So much for girl staying

In afraid of being needed

And seen she watches

The world on a screen

She's distant

And God knows I tried to leave her

'Cause she's got a constant fever

I let it slip my mind

I never come around

I never come around

I left her fifteen years behind

I know a girl laying down

No, I never wasted my time

We have something in common

She's as different as I am
