I've been here for a while Mark the days on the drywall Feel my body going numb, oh Set a plate on the table Matching chairs made of maple Heavy drapes block the sun, oh When strange things start to creep in I turn the TV on Till the feeling's gone And for a while, forget that I'm alone Spending all my days Staring into space And slowly watch the world just melt away Know this house down to a science Which floorboards break the silence Walking blindly through the dark, oh, mmm If I never leave this place Then I'll never have to face Any pain, nothing else has to change Fossilized in the paint I turn the TV on Till the feeling's gone And for a while, forget that I'm alone Spending all my days Staring into space And slowly watch the world just melt away I turn the TV on Till the feeling's gone And for a while, forget that I'm alone Spending all my days Staring into space And slowly watch the world just melt away Slowly watch the world just melt away Slowly watch the world just melt away Slowly watch the world just melt away Fades away but I just stay the same Fades away but I just stay And slowly watch the world just melt away
