Elliot Smith 2:45

Hole

2:45 am





i'm going out sleepwalking


where mute memories start talking


the boss that couldn't help but hurt you


and the pretty thing he made desert you


i'm going out now like a baby


a naïve unsatisfiable baby


grabbing onto whatever's around


for the soaring high or the crushing down


with hidden cracks that don't show


but that constantly just grow


i'm looking for the man that attacked me


while everybody was laughing at me


you beat it in me that part of you


but i'm gonna split us back in two


tired of living in a cloud


if you're gonna say shit now you'll do it out loud


it's 2:45 in the morning


and i'm putting myself on warning


for waking up in an unknown place


with a recollection you've half erased


looking for somebody's arms to


wave away past harms


i'm walking out on center circle


the both of you can just fade to black


i'm walking out on center circle


been pushed away and i'll never go back
