Weary and Wearing

Groovin' The Mill
Lyrics and notesi can feel you lurking in the darkest regions of my soul
i can feel you wrapping around my bitter brittle bones
and how yr presence is always so pronounced
i can't get yr voice out of my head
out of my head
and my how you tempt me with yr sweet syrupy whispers
and oh how you tease me with what i should be could be would me
if i only follow you
if i only follow you you say
you can make my problems go away
you could flush them all down the drain down the drain
and then how you scold me
for having lost control again
saying don't you feel guilty
don't you feel gluttonous and filthy
you are weak that's why you need me
you say you are weak so that's why you need me
and i'm following you down twisted corridors
opening yr kingdoms crooked doors
and once again i am knelt down before yr porcelain throne
and i am offering elixirs
and the sour smell of shame rises hot and muggy in the air
as my eyes are watering profusely
an oh how it burns oh how it burns
how long must it continue to hurt
how long must it continue to hurt
and as i leave out of yr rotting gates
i swear after this time i'll wriggle out of yr suffocating embrace
and i'm so sick of yr bitter taste upon my tongue upon my tongue
you tell me we are but i know that we are not one we are not one
oh why won't you let me go?
why won't you let me grow?
well i'm weary and wearing
and constantly tearing
i'm weary and weary i'm constantly tearing
oh why won't you let me be let me be
oh just let me be free let me be free
just let me be.
