Permanent Damage - Rhett Miller

You were dreamin' of your mom’s house

But it was also a spider web

Your best friend was sleepin'

In your momma’s bed

Your dad was doin' taxes

In his boxers on the floor

Hangin' out in the old house

Though he’d escaped from the web years before

Nobody wants to hear

About your stupid dream

We don’t even want to hear

Half the shit that happens in reality

Everybody has an inner life

Everybody is super deep

Go back to sleep, go back to sleep

Nobody wants to hear about your stupid dream

You were dreamin' of a balcony

Hangin' on a cigarette

You were workin' on a whiskey

It was like you’d never quit

Your daddy saw you in the window

And he was going, going, gone

Your best friend turned into a dog now

Curled up next to your sleeping mom

Nobody wants to hear

About your stupid dream

We don’t even want to hear

Half the shit that happens in reality

Everybody has an inner life

Everybody is super deep

Go back to sleep, go back to sleep

Nobody wants to hear about your stupid dream

Don’t wake me up

You might do permanent damage

Permanent damage

Don’t wake me up

You might do permanent damage

Permanent damage

When I came to

I had spiders on my skin

I was stuck in a loop now

Wakin' up again and again and again and again and again

Thought it’d last forever

Then I saw your face

We were in a good place

Nobody wants to hear

About my stupid dream

You don’t even want to hear

Half the shit that happens in reality

Everybody has an inner life

Everybody is super deep

Go back to sleep, go back to sleep

Nobody wants to hear about your stupid dream

Go back to sleep, go back to sleep

Nobody wants to hear about your stupid dream

Go back to sleep, go back to sleep

Nobody wants to hear about your stupid dream
