Lyrics: Sinking
Album: Loose Nut
Artist: Black Flag
 

Sinking
Wanting
Thinking
Sinking all the while

* it hurts to be alone
When it hurts to be alone

When it’s cold outside
When it’s cold inside
When it hurts to be alone
It hurts to be alone

*

When i’m feeling it
When i’m down and out
When i’m feeling it
When i’m down and out

*

All torn up
All torn down
Yeah
I’m thinking that i’m sinking
And i’m sinking all the while

*

Falling down
Falling down
I stand up
To fall back down

*

Caving in
Caving in
I think my heart
Is caving in

*

Dead air
Dead phone
Dead quiet
Sinking all the while

*

Writhing my hands
Grinding my teeth
Staring at the floor
Sinking all the while

*

Cutting my teeth on the blues
Soul sinking to the bottom of my shoes
Thinking my life’s a waiting game
Staring at my grave and feeling the same

*

When i want what i want
When i want what i want
When i need it
I need it

*

When all i need
Is all i need
When i need it
I need it

*

Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
