4.48 Psychosis - Tindersticks

But you have friends

What do you offer your friends to make them so supportive?

What do you offer?

Hatch opens

Stark light

The television talks

Full of eyes

The spirits of sight

And now I am so afraid

I’m seeing things

I’m hearing things

I don’t know who I am

Tongue out

Thought stalled

The piecemeal crumple of my mind

Where do I start?

Where do I stop?

How do I stop?

How do I stop?

How do I stop?

How do I stop?

At 4:48

When sanity visits

For one hour and twelve minutes I am in my right mind

When it has passed I shall be gone again

Remember the light and believe the light

Nothing matters more

Hatch opens

Stark light

A table, two chairs and no window

Here am I (Here I am)

And there is my body

Dancing on glass

In accident time where there are no accidents

You have no choice

The choice comes after

Cut out my tongue

Tear out my hair

Cut off my limbs

But leave me my love

I would rather have lost my legs

Pulled out my teeth

Gouged out my eyes

Than lost my love

At 4:48 I shall sleep

What do you offer?

Hatch opens

Stark light

And Nothing

Nothing

See — Nothing

Still black water

As deep as forever

As cold as the sky

As still as my heart when your voice is gone

I shall freeze in hell

At 4:48

(In) The happy hour

When clarity visits

Warm darkness

Which soaks my eyes
