LYRIC FOR SALE

By Mark Bishop

[Verse 1]

Woke up wrong, don’t know why

Heavy chest, no reason left

Same four walls, same soft air

Something missing, nothing there

Glass of water, shaking hands

Morning drop I didn’t plan

Little pack beside the sink

Stops me just before I think

[Pre-Chorus]

I can’t tell if I’m healing

Or just easier to ignore

[Chorus]

Little white dove, on my tongue

Let it melt, let it make me small

Cut the edges off everything

Till I don’t feel anything

Little white dove, keep me in line

Make it quiet inside my mind

I’m not good, but I’m not that bad

Guess that’s all that I ever had

Verse 2]

Used to burn, used to break

Now it’s quiet when I wake

Gentle days, easy nights

Everything just sits… alright

They allI seem alright

Guess I learned to fake it right

Say the words, keep it light

Keep it small and out of sight

[Pre-Chorus]

I can’t tell if I’m better

Or just easier to forget

[Chorus]

Little white dove, on my tongue
Let it melt, let it make me small

Cut the edges off everything

Till I don’t feel anything

Little white dove, keep me in line

Make it quiet inside my mind

I’m not good, but I’m not that bad

Guess that’s all that I ever had

[Bridge]
T
hey don’t see it when I slide

They just see I’m doing fine
Guess I learned to fake it right

Guess I learned it every night

Hold it steady, keep it neat

Say I’m sleeping, say I eat

If it’s working, why’s it feel
Like
I’m hiding something real?

[Final Chorus]

Little white dove, on my tongue

Little white dove, on my tongue

Little white dove, on my tongue

Don’t feel it

Don’t feel it

Don’t feel it

Little white dove,
let it numb

Little white dove,
let it numb

Little white dove,
let it numb

Don’t think now

Don’t think now

Don’t think now

[Outro]

Just enough

Just enough

Just enough
