"Water Running" lyrics

"Water Running"

All of the lights turn on when you say my name
I've spent years chasing down this feeling
Let the electric bill run till I'm out of cash
And light all the candles with a stove of gas

I will keep you in a room in my brain
Set up a corner for you so you can stay, stay
I will show you the bruises on me
And we will keep the water running

Remembering ants in a line, between the tiles
Searching for food in an apartment that caught on fire
Remembering monsters below, my feet off the bed
Much too old for that thought, but there's safety in it

I will keep you in a room in my brain
Set up a corner for you so you can stay, stay
I will show you the bruises on me
And we will keep the water running

Wonder if I stood still maybe I'd remember more
You make the ache in my bones a little less sore
Know I don't need you, but that makes me want you more

I will keep you in a room in my brain
Set up a corner for you so you can stay, stay
I will show you the bruises on me
And we will keep the water running
