lyrics

Oh my god I’m so alone
I’m so alone I can hear my heart a’ beatin’
Oh my god this telephone
This telephone is as silent as an empty theatre
I have fallen in to this river
I have fallen in to this river
I have fallen in to this river don’t you
Let me drown

Oh my god I’ve seen the end of Eden
I didn’t eat the fruit, I just fell off
Oh I know that this fall it just might
Kill me so
Toss me down a needle with some
Clothing I can keep so I can
Start to stem the bleeding ‘for I
Sink too deep

Oh my god I’m so alone
I’m so alone I can hear my heart a’ beatin’
Oh my god this telephone
This telephone is as silent as an empty theatre
I have fallen in to this river
I have fallen in to this river
I have fallen in to this river don’t you
Let me drown

Oh my god my eyes have filled with water
Spitting out my teeth to try to breathe
Oh I know that my head is staying
Under now so
Send me down a letter from some
Friend up there in heaven so I can
Feel a little better ‘for the
Bitter end

Oh my god I’m so alone
I’m so alone I can hear my heart a’ beatin’
Oh my god this telephone
This telephone is as silent as an empty theatre
I have fallen in to this river
I have fallen in to this river
I have fallen in to this river don’t you
Let me drown

Oh I know
I ain’t going
Back home
Again now
So just tell
My friends
That I’m sorry and I miss them

Oh my god I’m so alone
I’m so alone I can hear my heart a’ beatin’
Oh my god this telephone
This telephone is as silent as an empty theatre
I have fallen in to this river
I have fallen in to this river
I have fallen in to this river don’t you
Let me drown
