lyrics

Neither asleep, nor awake, just catatonic
My impassibility starts to seem eerily chronic
Numb, paralized, i'm a goner in disguise

If I was a canary, I'd leave my little cage and fly away
If I was a human, I'd slip this body off and flit away

Seconds dissolve, darkness creeps, slumber is over
Spectres arrive and shade away in moonlit hover
Guilt fills the space with a strangling embrace

If I was a canary, I'd leave my little cage and fly away
If I was a human, I'd slip this body off and flit away

Stuck in my room in the dreamtime gloom
Unable to defy simple question of why

If I was a child, I'd trade my blessed years for little sleep
If I was a grown-up I'd never make a promise I cannot keep
If I was a canary, I'd leave my little cage and fly away
If I was a human, I'd slip this body off and flit away
