Iron

Hold your pattern 'til I fall asleep
And soon I'm not afraid
Catch me when I fall asleep
And the edges fade away
Try to catch the telephone in time
But it's buried in the sand
Run the riddle back again
Until I understand

Is your color wheel a solid blue?
Do your birds only sing out of tune?
Think you're spreadin' yourself too thin
And the summer's gettin' under your skin

So you try to sleep
But all your dreams are bittersweet, mmh
Something's calling me
Like a siren on repeat

Is your house on a slippery slope?
Is your honey due?
Have you tangled the yarn in your head?
Whatchu tryna do?
Yeah, those spinning wheels that can't be beat
They all vanish when you sleep
But that phone is ringin' off the hook
Echoing everywhere that I look

Is anyone there? Pick up
I can't stop waking up
No matter what I do
Keep thinkin' I have a shot
Then the wake-up call is dropped
There's nothing I can do
Finally get through with some luck
But the line keeps breaking up
No matter what I do
Is anyone there? Pick up
I can't stop waking up
There's nothing I can do

There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
Hm, hm, mmh
There's nothing I can do
Hm, hm, mmh
