Shorn

We always look tired

But we get too much sleep

Dreams give no rest

When they're the same as the day that precedes

We want to see angels

And touch their wings

But clouds never part any more

It's just one of those things



I need you now

It frightens me

But I'm out of touch

And I'm dying to be



Naked and happy

For all the world to see me

Shorn

Naked and happy

And no-one laughing at me

Shorn



We're wells of compassion

Except to ourselves

We are ugly in the mirror

Beautiful to the ones we love



I need you now

It frightens me

But I'm out of touch

And I'm dying to be



Naked and happy

For all the world to see me

Shorn

Naked and happy

And no-one laughing at me

Shorn



Let me tell you something that'll shock you like hell

I have it on authority that we are both alive and well



I know too much

Need to start forgetting

'Cause I'm out of touch

And I'm dying to be



Naked and happy

For all the world to see me

Shorn

Naked and happy

And no-one laughing at me

Shorn



I've made myself sick

And I've made myself sad

Letting go of everything

Was the best idea I've ever had
