Strum
D-DU-UDU
There's  a wild thing in the wool-shed
 And it’s keeping  me awake at night.
A  devil in the closet and a feeling  I'd prefer to hide
He  is religion, he won't hear  me when I cry for help
He  has a vision of me  but I am somebody else
 We talk  the pillow
 There are times  when I'm tied up to the fence
 And I'm only talking sense
 There's a mirror lake before me
 But I'm frozen when it's time to jump
 It's like maybe I'm afraid of what I'll find
 When independence comes.
You  steal my shadow,  you make my blood run dry
 We are true  only when we talk  the pillow
 There are times  when I'm tied up to the fence
 Only talking sense...
 And  I'm only talking sense...
Did  you suffer as a child,
 that's why  you want to make me cry?
You  are afraid of me, that's  why you're so unki...............nd.
 You  won't deny it
 When your child  is tied up to the fence
 And I'm only talking sense
 Lonely when we talk  the pillow
 And your child  is messed up in the head
 I'm only talking sense
