Jump streams that cut across the bed
Leaving colours there instead
See lines I'm drawing to an end
But ignore them

And if I say how I feel again
Is it wise to do it?
All I'm hearing for the umpteenth time
The song I despise

And don't you fall asleep
There's lots of things I need to say
That just won't keep

Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet catatonia
I should've told you
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet catatonia
I should've told you

And with my fears in the back of my mind
Will they gang up on me?
And when I least expect them to
Will they devour me?

Now don't you turn aside
Your tired ears must hear me out
There's nowhere to hide

Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet catatonia
I should've told you
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet catatonia
I should've told you

And don't you turn aside
Your tired ears must hear me out
There's nowhere to hide

Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet catatonia
I should've told you
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet catatonia
I should've told you

And with my fears in the back of my mind
Will they gang up on me?
And when I least expect them to
Will they devour me?
