Woke up wanting to hear this song

The second song I post from Damien Rice's second full length studio album, 9.

Grey Room
Well I've been here before,
I've sat on the floor,
In a grey grey room.
Where I stay in all day,
I don't eat but I play,
With this grey grey food.

Désolé, If someone is prayin'
Then I might break out.
Désolé, Even if I scream,
I can't scream that loud.

I'm all alone again,
Crawling back home again,
Just stuck by the phone again.

Yeah, well I've been here before,
Sat on a floor,
In a grey grey mood.
Where I stay up all night,
And all that I write,
Is a grey grey tune.

So pray for me child, Just for a while
And I might break out.
Pray for me child, Even a smile
Would do for now.

So I'm all alone again,
Crawling back home again,
Just stuck by the phone again.

Have I still got you to be my open door?
Have I still got you to be my sandy shore?
Have I still got you to cross my bridge in this storm?
Have I still got you to keep me warm?

Cause if I squeeze my grape,
And I drink my wine.
Cause if I squeeze my grape,
And I drink my wine.
Cause nothing is lost,
This is frozen in frost.
And it's opening time,
And there's no one in line.

But I've still got me to be your open door.
I've still got me to be your sandy shore.
I've still got me to cross your bridge in this storm.
And I've still got me to keep you warm.

Warmer than warm yeah
Warmer than warm yeah
Warmer than warm yeah
Warmer than warm yeah

One of those songs with a wicked twist that leaves me in awe of his song writing skills. Starts with him asking questions. Then realises that in a relationship, he is as much to the other party as the other party is to him.

Sometimes we have got to learn to be a little less selfish.

But then we will live in a better world.
