David by Bernice Lyrics

David, sedated, lying on the floor
David, can't lift his eyes anymore

Take out your steel frame, let it fall apart
You folded up so far
Answering the phone, closing a door
Everything feels awfully empty for David

Aw hell, let it go
Then make it back up
Hold the pain more closely

Take out your steel frame, let it fall apart
Didn't know that you folded up so far

Answering the phone, closing a door
Everything feels awfully empty for David

Wha ho, he's ready again
He wasn't ready back then
Just give him something to believe in
He's not okay, barely knows his name
Won't let anyone help him
Getting into bed, getting out of bed
Blinking his eyes

Turning the light on, getting turned on
It all feels awfully empty for David

Wha ho, beloved boy
Taffy color kid
Feeling old as dust does

Getting into bed, getting out of bed
Blinking his eyes

Turning the light on, getting turned on
It all feels awfully empty for David

Wha ho, he's ready again
He wasn't ready back then
Just give him something to believe in
Just give him something to believe in

David

Wha ho, he's ready again
He wasn't ready back then
Just give him something to believe in
Give him something to believe in
