Damn, when I was feeding off the media frenzy about Amy Winehouse, I was just taking in what they gave me about her- What a freak, what a fuckup...

 

And the more I listen to her music, the more I now understand what an absolute loss it was to the world to let her be discarded the way we allowed her to be...

 

It's okay in the day, I'm staying busy
Tied up enough so I don't have to wonder where is he
Got so sick of crying, so just lately
When I catch myself I do a 180

 

I stay up, clean the house, at least I'm not drinking
Run around just so I don't have to think about thinking
That silent sense of content that everyone gets
Just disappears soon as the sun sets

 

This face in my dreams seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in soul, he swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him, moon spilling in

 And I wake up alone

 

If I was my heart I'd rather be restless
Second I stop the sleep catches up and I'm breathless
As this ache in my chest, as my day is done now
The dark covers me and I cannot run now

 

My blood running cold, I stand before him
It's all I can do to assure him
When he comes to me, I drip for him tonight
Drowned in me, we bathe under blue light

 

His face in my dreams seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in soul, he swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him, moon spilling in

And I wake up alone

 

And I wake up alone

And I wake up alone

And I wake up alone
