I'm posting this on the other original forum too.
So here's another new one...

The Corner of the Bed
These purple pills keep the crazy safely downstairs
I’ve moved beyond the care of living with an empty head
So I’ll sit and stare, watch the paint dry on the walls, then close my eyes instead
Best not turn around to see that empty bed
There’s a corner of the bed
I fell deeply, it made a mark on my head
There’s a corner in my heart
And inside it welcomes only dark
So I’ll keep that darkness in my head
And I’ll stay in the corner of the bed
I’ve run away from my life but the darkness follows me
Couldn’t make the bed this morning, couldn’t bear to face that which I couldn’t see
So I turned away from the light and stood to face my mind
Oh, the mirror lies, all it shows are cracks in my design
There’s a corner of the bed
I fell deeply, it made a mark on my head
There’s a corner in my heart
And inside it welcomes only dark
So I’ll keep that darkness in my head
And I’ll stay in the corner of the bed
Ohhh, somebody got inside my head
They picked the lock, I threw away the key
Ohhh, my hands are tied and stained with red
They walked the tightrope, fell aside and left it all on me
There’s a corner of the bed
I fell deeply, it made a mark on my head
There’s a corner in my heart
And inside it welcomes only dark
So I’ll keep that darkness in my head
And I’ll stay in the corner of the bed
There’s a corner in my bed…
Blah, blah, blah
I just realised after recording it all that I've used "face" twice in the 2nd verse AND I've directly contradicted myself in context too...I apparently couldn't bear to face what I couldn't see and yet I was then standing to face my mind? My voice cracked at one point as well. Sorry about that. I also noticed it's a very long song though it didn't feel that way when recording it. Oops. Please excuse these glitches I am adjusting to my medication.
