Burnt At Both Ends

Times After Dusk

There's a black dog that lives in me
That will no longer let me be
In my heart there's a splinter and
All through the night i wish i were sleeping

I am a candle burnt at both ends
I'm in the flame that's licking my heels
Your words cut in the place that i always bleed
In the part that discerns just what i believe

I lie in the bed that i have made
Shake the night through on the edge of a blade
I am cut in the part that discerns between
The way things are and the way that they should be
