Short of Hell

babe are you angry cause I just slammed the door
why don’t you answer, did I forget some chore
my whole week has been nothing short of hell
and I need somewhere to put down my glasses
and let things blur, erase what’s happened

come to me
come to me

baby what is this, everything’s on the floor
staring ahead now, am I too great of a bore
my whole week has been nothing short of hell
and I’m slumping like a worn out mattress
if you don’t care that we’re out of practice

come to me
come to me

I’m closer to quitting
don’t make this decision
in stagnance life begins to change
how slowly we’ve become estranged

if part of you hears this and suffers a weakness
if part of you sees me through dishes and laundry

come come come come come come

(words by Doug Harrison)
