lyrics

But my room's so small
that the headboard hits the ceiling
and I can't even stretch out my legs
What more room for someone else's pillow
on a single unmade bed

That's the problem when you get to specifics
I fixate on the small details
I forget the bigger picture
At least that's what my horoscope says

And I guess I don't believe in constellations
Seeing the future only gets you so far
All I need is rude warm blood in the night
And some shelter from the dark

But my room's so small
that the headboard hits the ceiling
and I can't even stretch out my legs
What more room for someone else's pillow
on a single unmade bed

[dom facemelting solo]

That's the problem when you get to specifics
I fixate on the small details
I forget the bigger picture
And I close the door instead

But my room's so small
that the headboard hits the ceiling
and I can't even stretch out my legs
What more room for someone else's pillow
on a single unmade bed
