BLOCK OUT THE SUN

Freeway’s wet with paint and blood. 

We just keep on driving.

Tonight I’ll lie there next to you and wonder what you’re thinking.

 

Block out the sun with all your thoughts. 

All your heart. All your heart.

I could help ‘cause I think too. 

With all my heart. All my heart.

 

I know there’s something burning. 

The bed’s on fire again.

My cigarette, no spark. No love, no hot love.

 

Block out the sun with all your thoughts. 

All your heart. All your heart.

I could help ‘cause I think, too. 

With all my heart. All my heart.

 

You’ve gone bad, and it’s all gone sour, and I don’t know what for. 

But my body’s locked up again.

 

Give me all my bad nights back. When the planes fly in formation.

Over dark clouds, over bridges. And turn the channel to another station.

We spin into the silence. Turn around and spit three times.

All the words that we have spoken sound like nursery rhymes.

 

Block out the sun with all your thoughts. 

All your heart. All your heart.

I could help ‘cause I think, too. 

With all my heart. All my heart.

 

You’ve gone bad, and it’s all gone sour, and I don’t know what for. 

But my body’s locked up again.

 

Block out the sun with all your thoughts. 

All your heart. All your heart.

I could help ‘cause I think, too. 

With all my heart. All my heart.
