Lyrics Sinéad O'connor

Sinéad O'connor

The State I'm In

I'm circling around the sun

Hoping for a chance to see

You above everyone

To rescue me from this heat

I'm waiting for night to fall

And it's been days

Are you sorry yet

You took our one and final breath

When the flag was halfway down

Just look at me now...

Oooooh - It's like a breeze blowing deep beneath my skin

Oooooh - Won't you help me out of the state I'm in

Oooooh - I can't stand myself since you've been gone

There's nothing there to lean upon

Walk into a photograph

That waiter took so well

Oooh if I could only laugh

Like that girl at some hotel

I call out to anyone

But not too loud

I'm not ready yet

To share the phone or TV set

It's a long long way to come

Out of this one ...

Oooooh - It's like a breeze blowing deep beneath my skin

Oooooh - Won't you help me out of the state I'm in

Oooooh - I can't stand myself since you've been gone

There's nothing there to lean upon

And now it seems so fatal

The last stone we left uncradled

And I ask you are you sorry yet

Are you sorry yet

Cuz I may never come

Out of this one ...

Oooooh - It's like a breeze blowing deep beneath my skin

Oooooh - Won't you help me out of the state I'm in

Oooooh - I can't stand myself since you've been gone

There's nothing there to lean upon

Oooooh - It's blowing deep, blowing deep

Oooooh - help me out, help me out of that state I'm in

Oooooh - It's blowing deep beneath my skin

This is the state I'm in

This is the state I'm in
