Canaan Lyrics

Canaan is lonely

But Canaan's the only one who knows

So Canaan just frowns and goes downtown

Canaan is falling

And Canaan is calling out to you

But Canaan would drown if he reached the ground

Canaan's emerging

From beneath a burning fern he has found

Canaan's resurging

On the verge of turning brown

And he says, I don't know how to feel about you

And he says, I don't know what is real without you

And he says, I cried when you flushed me out the drain of your brain into the frozen rain

And, I've tried going insane

Canaan is worried

But he's in no hurry to understand

Flies in a flurry

And he scurries to be a better man

Canaan is wild

He drives with a smile and no real plan

Meanders for miles

And only arrives at thoughts like

I can't tell how to feel about you

And, I can't tell what is real without you

And, I cried when you flushed me out the drain of your brain Into the frozen rain

And, I've tried going insane

Going insane

And there's nothing to be said

That won't leave him locked inside his head

Don't leave him lying in his bed

And though he is falling out of view

Canaan's still calling out

Canaan is messy

But stress is a blessing from time to time

And though he is resting

He's playing chess with himself in his mind most of the time

And Canaan is lazy

And he's crazy 'bout the drugs he shouldn't have to do to get through to you

And his mind's getting hazy

It burns in a blaze all around you

And I don't know what to do about you

And I just don't have a clue without you

And I cried when you flushed me out the drain of your brain into the frozen rain

And I've tried going insane

Going insane, going insane

Going insane, going insane

Going insane, going insane

Going insane, going insane, going insane, going insane
