No Connection (Bonus Track)

No Connection (Bonus Track) - Sophie B. Hawkins

Tired of waking up
I'm sick of rolling off the bus
I want to sleep forever
In the lies I've made
The checks have bounced
But the bills got paid so far

On the jaguar
I call myself
The lines get crossed
On the short wave I get cut off
'Cause I can't behave
Very well

You think you know me

You don't know my way around

Hell is just below me

And that's why I keep falling down

I'm praying to resist temptation
Staying withing my constellation
Weighing every intonation
Betraying alienation

I quit sobriety
I joined up with insanity
I want to pull the lever on the hatch I built
Escaping truth and avoiding guilt
So far

In the family car I get away
The border's nearer than I thought
I'll drive all day and I won't get caught
Anyway

The light is fading

And I haven't had time to call

You must be waiting

For someone whose engines
Won't stall

I'm praying to resist temptation

Staying withing my constellation

Weighing every intonation

Betraying alienation

I'm feeling the strings of your rejection

Kneeling in the wrong direction

Sealing my heart to your neglection

Revealing no connection

I'm praying to resist temptation

Staying withing my constellation

Weighing every intonation

Betraying alienation

Feeling the strings of your rejection

Kneeling in the wrong direction

Sealing my heart to your neglection

Revealing no connection
