The Dreaming Insomniacs - Tom's Story Lyrics

Tom went for a
Walk today A wad of cash
And nothing to say
He walked into An Old
Sports shop Knowing
It was time to move on
Knowing, it was time
To move on

Tom had a Wife & Kids
A House, A Boat
And everything was his
When he heard The News
He turned A slot in Heaven
He believed he deserved
A slot in Heaven
He believed he deserved

As soon as The Help could
Come, The Counter was more
Red than a Blood Moon Sun
Tally marks on his bedroom
Walls, counting & waiting
No time at all
Counting & waiting
No time at all

Tom had a Wife & Kids
A House, A Boat
And everything was his
When he heard The News
He turned A slot in Heaven
He believed he deserved
A slot in Heaven
He believed he deserved

Today I talked to Tom's Wife
She said we don't need to
Fight Tom is now where
He wanted to be
I know this because Tom is
Me I know this because
Tom is me

Tom had a Wife & Kids
A House, A Boat &
Everything was his
When he heard The News
He turned A Spot in Heaven
He believed he deserved,
A Spot in heaven he got
What he deserved
