Eniac - Visiting Hours lyrics

Thinking of you here in this bed This room is so cold for frozen meat You are sleeping for hours Getting you something for the pain I slept maybe two hours Up for maybe twenty, up for maybe more Curling up her in this chair, crossword puzzles and watching you lay there Dozed off to a leonard novel I woke to your apparatus breathing I felt that woman hurt you Vulnerable girl I want to protect you for once You tongue if fumbed Not as sharp When she makes her paid demands I hate hospitals for all the white and metal Flourescent lights and hired help Depending on you to open your eyes Ask, "How long did it take?" Did your mom stop by? Isn't is scary how these same beds where people are born sometimes hold the dying? Makes me nervous for you Makes me nervous Nervous walking the halls I've seen the lobby waiters half a hundred times The cafeteria feeds those Nightgown-wearing I.V. walkers seem to bring me closer to my health/self We were born in seperate beds a state away You grew up confident And I can't stand the smell of rubber gloves Now that it's over When will they let you come home?
