Rug - Sleeping Lion

Oh love

Here’s my forethought

It’s been a fortnight

But I need some more thought

They moved the bed from your room

They paint your walls

And they’re yelling at you

To be cool with it all

We had parents once

Oh, it could’ve been a rug

At least my brother’s numb

Oh love

It could’ve been a rug

Oh love

It could’ve been a rug

Oh love

You’re looking at me like you want something

And I want that enough to believe

I still think straight

My demon is a patient creature

He bides his time

While he feeds on what I feed him

And tells me I’m alright

I think you liked me once

Oh, it could’ve been a rug

At least my body’s numb

Oh love

It could’ve been a rug

Oh love

It could’ve been a rug

Oh, it could’ve been a rug

At least my body’s numb

Oh, and we’re waking up

Brother, life is long

Oh love

It could’ve been a rug

Oh love

It could’ve been a rug
