It all seems so familiar
But this house is not a home
Nights spent kissing concrete
Until you feel it in your bones
Restless hours with terrors of the night
Paralyzed at the sight
Gimme shelter, give me sleep
My head is aching, my knees are weak
Just give me shelter, I need some sleep
I'm feeling weary, I'm feeling cheap
The sour smell, the clang of empty glass
Living in fear until a silence, at last
The constant aching, your nerves are shot
The sky is empty, all hope is lost
Red eyes and long red nights
Red shoes within your reach
And the shakes still make me want to leave
Because this future is fucking bleak
Gimme shelter, give me sleep
My head is aching, my knees are weak
Just give me shelter, I need some sleep
I'm feeling weary, I'm feeling cheap
