White Noise

The men on my mother's side
And some women too
Share the same disease
Of unquenchable thirst
And likewise I'm afflicted
I cannot be satisfied
I hunger for what wakes me
And my eyes are full of dollar signs

Don't leave me on my own
Don't leave me on my own
I need white noise
And I'm willing to pay the cost
I'm willing to pay the cost
Just give me white noise

Direct I run to the ziggurat
Press my temple down to the sound
Oh it fills my spirits, spills down my cup
Don't dare shake me up

Do not confuse me lying still
With one who lies at rest
Silence more deafening
Than the cry of any man

Don't leave me on my own
Don't leave me on my own
I need white noise
And I"m willing to pay the cost
I'm willing to pay the cost
Just give me white noise

Oh honey don't cut me off
Honey don't cut me off
I need white noise
And I'm willing to pay the cost
I'm willing to pay the cost
Just give me, give me white noise

Baby please don't go
I won't sleep
Please come back
I won't sleep
