"Feet For Hands" lyrics

"Feet For Hands"

There were reasons to get out of my bed, eh
Slipping in and out of what you call life
And it plays again and I can see him ending
On a pale road and I died that day
Makes no difference if they're open or closed
When you shake my hand, I'm a hero, I'm a hero
And I'm dealing, yeah, I'm dealing fine

I think I've had enough of all the lights on Earth
I think I'm done with answering the phone, eh
I pour myself a bridge and now I can't go back
I think it's gonna happen pretty soon

Dealing for the longest time
And I'm sorry that I've made it this far
When you think of me, don't remember this
Not a slow wane of a blinded man
And the faces of my family fade
Now as featureless as an orange, as an orange to me
So tired, don't you let me go

I think I've had enough of all the lights on Earth
I think I'm done with answering the phone, eh
I pour myself a bridge and now I can't go back
I think it's gonna happen pretty soon

You ask, "How many fingers am I holding up?"
I don't know what is taking me so long
Let's get up off the floor and use our feet for hands
I see double, I see double yellow lines

And I can see us laid out by a waterfall
Don't remember, don't remember me this way, eh-eh-eh, eh
But what makes her so sure that there's a world outside?
Yeah, she really had me going for a while, eh-eh-eh, eh

I won't forget you
I won't forget you
I won't forget you
