The Recluse

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I wake alone, in a woman's room I hardly know I wake alone, pretend that I am finally home The room is littered with her books and notebooks I imagine what they say, like, "Shoo fly, don't bother me" [Chorus] And I can hardly get myself out of her bed For fear of never lying in this bed again Oh Christ, I'm not that desperate, am I? Oh no, oh God - I am [Verse 2] How'd I end up here to begin with? I don't know Why do I start what I can't finish? Oh, please, don't barrage me With the questions to all those ugly answers My ego's like my stomach It keeps shitting what I feed it But maybe I don't want to finish anything anymore Maybe I can wait in bed till she comes home And whispers: [Chorus] "You're in my web now I've come to wrap you up tight Till it's time to bite down" [Bridge] I wake alone, in a woman's room I hardly know I wake alone, pretend that I am finally home [Outro] Home, home Home, home Home, home "You're in my web now You're in my web now You're in my web now"
