The Receiver Lyrics

Oh, my receiver, how long it's been

I had rolled over in my bed until it felt like a grave

Can you bear my voice? Will you speak up again?

I will heel at your behest

I cannot catch your attention

While you stare straight ahead

Are you happy?

Did you collect

All your debts?

Oh, my believer, how does it sting?

I'd circled back to the moment until it felt like a dream

Can I ease your mind? At least sleep through it all?

Can you meet me again

At the epicenter of our affliction?

I won't speak out of turn.

Are you happy?

Did you collect

All your debts?

In the room before you

I can feel it all around

A fever that surrounds and

Keeps us small and hunkered down

Compounding all the terror out loud.
