So I kept my curtains closed through the summer
Because the room would become too bright
And I kept my thoughts to myself through the summer
Because you wouldn't comprehend the beginning or the end
And I wanted to get up, but I just couldn't get up
And I wanted to run but my legs weren't there
Yeah I wanted to get up, but I just couldn't get up
And I wanted to run by my mind was scared
Speaking one's thoughts can ruin the effect
Of wanting to appear circumspect
Them's the breaks, the pains and the aches
The strikes and gutters
Them's the breaks, the give and the takes
And what doesn't matter, them's the breaks
So I tried to hibernate through the winter
Because there's always someone knocking on your door
And I kept my nose clean through the winter
Because there's not much solace in the drunken dark
And I wanted to leave, but I just couldn't leave
And I wanted to give but they always want more
Yeah I wanted to leave, but I just couldn't leave
And I wanted to give but they always take more
Drinking 'til you drop can ruin the effect
Of wanting to maintain self respect
So I closed my eyes and sweated it out
On the boats and the asphalt and the tiles
And I called everybody that I know
In the hope that they would stir my soul
