Can't Talk Anymore - The Vapors

Just another Tuesday afternoon

Just another sudden squalid squall

Just another day to stay in bed

Just another dismal rendezvous

Only I can see beneath the sheets

Only I can satisfy my God

Only knows why I was ever born

Only I can tell me but I won’t say a word

I can’t talk anymore *4

Don’t you know it’s hard to stay awake

Don’t you find it’s hard to face the floor

Don’t you ever make the same mistake

Only I can tell you but I won’t say a word

I can’t talk anymore *4

Can’t pull the curtains

Cos theres something in the sky

The animal inside me

Sits and begs for suicide

And rain comes pouring through my pillow

I’m so affected by the smallest thing I do

Nothing I remember

Hurts me half as much as you

Look at my hands — pretty picture

Look at my head — simple head

Look at my eyes — in the mirror

Looks like someone else instead

I didn’t learn about this at school

There’s nothing in the papers

Or my discharge report

Someone on the phone

They got a message for my dog

Someones in the bathroom

When I want to use the bog

Angers on the road to pulling through

Can’t you keep it quiet

I’ll put a contract on you

Don’t you say a word

Don’t you even breathe a sigh

David’s life’s in danger

He’s on permanent high

He can’t talk anymore

I can’t talk anymore

What did I do last night
