Lyrics The Convalescent - Kid Dakota

The Convalescent

Now I know exactly how it feels
To be left for dead
No hope, no future, convalescent in a bed
Where I lie alone and dream of flying
Wake up in a sweat, you can’t deny
That I will never be the way I was
That I will never do the things I did
And you don’t love me
Darling, candles are burning and windows, oh
Darling, patiently waiting for ravens, oh
The Convalescent
Darling, I will be blood for your leeches, oh
Now I know exactly how it feels
To barely be alive
I can’t move, I can’t eat or sleep
All that’s left for me to do is die
Like Gregor Samsa
Post Metamorphosis
Body full of apple cores
It’s true
That I will never be the way I was
That I will never do the things I did
And you don’t love me
Darling, candles are burning and windows, oh
Darling, patiently waiting for ravens, oh
The Convalescent
Darling, I will be blood for your leeches, oh
Darling, candles are burning and windows, oh
Darling, patiently waiting for ravens, oh
The Convalescent
Darling, I will be blood for your leeches, oh
