Don't Ask Me What I Do

Don't Ask Me What I Do

Don't ask me what I do

Cuz I've been sleepwalking

For a year or two

I know this life's not for you

And I'm sorry what I put you through

If you try to reach me I'm not there

Doesn't mean that I don't care

Just means I'm more than I can bear

These ghosts and our love affair

I know that you can hear me

Howling at the ceiling

I know that I do what I do

keep on doing it anyway

I promise to be steady

Hold my hand out when I'm ready

I know that I do what I do

keep on doing it anyway

I know that you know

How this story goes

mmm mmm

Our house became an island

Taking time away from who I am

Who I could have been

And I know it's hard to comprehend

Why I wasted so much time

Oh my darling

It's frightening what you find

In your own mind

Forgive me if I crossed a line

I know that you can hear me

Howling at the ceiling

I know that I do what I do

keep on doing it anyway

I promise to be steady

Hold my hand out when I'm ready

I know that I do what I do

keep on doing it anyway

I know that you can hear me

Howling at the ceiling

I know that I do what I do

keep on doing it anyway

I promise to be steady

Hold my hand out when I'm ready

I know that I do what I do

keep on doing it anyway

I know that you know

How this story goes

mmm mmm mmm

mmm mmm mmm
