On the Floor - Live at Electric Lady

Lyrics

I'm trying, but still, I close my eyes The dreaming, bringing his face to mine Lock the door The constant buzzing all through the night The fighting rips me all up inside On the floor I pace, I run my mouth I pray and wait I cross out his name on the page How long 'til this washes away? How long 'til my body is safe? How long 'til I walk in the light? How long 'til this heart isn't mine? The rise and fall of his chest on me I'm trying, but still, it's all I see The violent current of energy I hide it away and underneath Lock the door I shake, I promise every day to change I cross out his name on the page How long 'til this washes away? How long 'til my body is safe? How long 'til I walk in the light? How long 'til this heart isn't mine? Take this wildness away It away It away Ah, ah I'm trying, but still, I close my eyes The dreaming, bringing his face to mine Out the door I pace, I run my mouth I pray to change I cross out his name on the page How long 'til this washes away? How long 'til my body is safe? How long 'til I walk in the light? I just want him in my arms I just want him in my arms
