Strangest Things

Starts with a burst, a little word, the sound's
So loud and high, it can't be heard and that's all
You can be sure of, so don't say a word

Caught up underneath just before the flood
A fight you've have and lost, a hundred to one
But that's all you ever wanted, so we'll be good

The strangest things are happening to me
I've been away all the time, in the end
It plain enough to see, it'll carry away, carry away

It's not in the marrow but it's in the bone
You grind it down to nothing until it leaves you whole
But that's all you can be sure off, so don't let go

And when it gets in your head, you stay for weeks
Fallin' out of bed, talking in your sleep but I can't feel a thing
I don't understand you when you speak

The strangest things are happening to me
I've been away all the time, in the end
It's plain enough to see, it'll carry away, carry away
