Epinephrine 01:12
Ever hear the voice in the dark? Calling out relentlessly A close encounter with the poison dart Specifically made for me I come to life and die again I come to life and die while waiting for someone to say

It's not a crime if you want to leave When the feelings weigh like lead to the bone The obtuse anthropology Of the things we value down to the microbe Now you're pressed up against the wall Cutting figures of the tired and alone Unimpressed with the certainty Just like children tying rags to the flagpole Give me twenty minutes Settle in the sun You'll begin to bask in me See what I become I don't give forgiveness Help you come undone You'll become a cast of me Melting into one Losing sight of who you want to be And the nameless nerves bite at your feet Take a picture for posterity Right before it fades in hushed retreat Give me twenty years Separate the soul You can leave the past to me Futures left untold Leapt beyond the ceiling Kept beneath the tongue You can feel the past and me Melting into one Poison bleeding through the wire Analgesic camouflage

Ventolin 03:25
Waking in the early hours Playing witness to the air Exiting through my mouth Inhale when you say it's ok And the situation dissipates In the vacant space I can see the utility In always holding onto you Although there's no point now You could say that it's comforting To know that I'm sort of immune But you don't get that do you? I'm just taking steps to be safe Don't look at me like I would complicate The hands of fate There's little time brother The unseen hand is heading right for you You'll never outrun her It's coming too fast, but you think you can take her Just harness your power Gain some distance through the medication There's little time brother There's little time There's little time

Morphine 04:10
I stroll along My broken leg in tow But I can't feel a thing The physician's bedside manner falters Lets out a sigh of courtesy A silent head A speeding motorcar An unhappy destination You'll have to wait Until the lucky day To undo the mess you made Jump into the air The river's getting warmer Count down to the end You fall and you ascend The heat pervades with striking subtlety The kind you wouldn't miss They wheel me in But my recall is weak Forgive what I omit Awake in lonely times before the day And I can't see a thing You touch the toe In a discerning way And fade into the din Jump into the air The river's getting warmer Count down to the end You fall and you ascend You fall and you ascend Will there always be pain in what I see? Will I always need pain to comfort me? Will there always be pain in what I see? Will there always be pain to comfort me? Will there always be pain in what I see? Will I always need pain to comfort me? Will there always be pain in what I see? Will I always need pain to comfort me?

Promethazine 03:44
Quick to confide but the feelings switch inside Pulling you under I'm synthesized, a compound that you deride Bleeding the schoolboy dry Obscenity from the ones who wet our feet Making me wonder A little time til the parlour tricks can't hide Shooting the promos now I'm born to die I'm poor and saintless, survived by the lives I'm saving It takes a lot To build the faces you found on the northeast pavement On certain nights when the fortune's not in sight It comes for another Sneaking inside on the analgesic high Direct from the anodyne Post-narcotic glue Bind the suffering to The devil that you know Now you're sleeping through Nodding endless and blue I'm born to die I'm poor and saintless, survived by the lives I'm saving It takes a lot To build the faces you found on the northeast pavement Maybe this is the thing What thing? The thing that you know, does me in I'm feeling pretty scared about it to be honest Scared like I can't tell you You know, it's like every day, I'm thinking about it And it doesn't really go away, and it never will and Do you just walk through the door and find out Or do you keep running from it You know, and just hope that that's not the thing that gets you in the end Discerning eye of the ever-fearing guise Led to the water I'll let you drink, but you'll have to peer inside Sledged by the morning side Sanction the sane in their unforgiving game Made in their image Asphyxiate the desire to abate The fear while you slip away I'm born to die I'm poor and saintless, survived by the lives I'm saving It takes a lot to build the faces you found on the northeast pavement

Doxycycline 05:24
I've got the thing to set your world on fire And it won't cost you much An even sacrifice from nascent youth The unsuspecting rube Accept the offering of safe abuse Within the hallowed halls Repress the logic and all common sense Cause it won't click yet Don't you know that nothing works to give the paper means to save you? It's just the constellation of vanity returning It don't seem worth it now Flipping through the wanted ads again Do you think that you're exceptional? Teach me a lesson that I won't regret Is that too much to ask? They suck the fantasy from future's fruit The devil of the past I'll take the blessing from a blood stained hand Before I'd ever seek To place the spotlight to the other cheek Who's hesitating now? You caught me envying the narrow peak And subsequent collapse The structured fallacy of truant truths Begets the net you cast But you know that nothing works to give the paper means to save you It's just the constellation of vanity returning It don't It don't It don't seem worth it now Flipping through the wanted ads again Do you think that you're exceptional?

Aspirin 03:19
I'm feeling so numb Just downed a fist of aspirin But how long is too long to wait? Before I wake up in a state I can't escape The light could rearrange The shape of figures in the space But no one can see it how you say Within a few hours it all will fade away Hey, hey Could you believe? I've been crucified Just in time to feel it Made me the chosen one I'll be the one to bear the blade But never a willing candidate I get stolen away, all the same Hey, hey Could you believe? I've been crucified Just in time to feel it Hey, hey Could you believe? I've been crucified Just in time to feel it

Prophylactic 04:38
I'm caught between the ebb and flow Of deception The moral and the vice Taking hold of me I saw her leaving at the cove Left a message Tethered to the home Unholy company Beyond the vision of the soul Sublimating Pleasure to behold Or any other thing She's lost the feeling in her bones Oscillating Terror with the known The choir melts into the wall And your unforgiving arms Can't suspend the pressure And you fall asleep and cry the whole way home I'm the reason and the cause Kept you guessing Cleaner than the thoughts Calling out to me Took to bleeding from the palm Begged for blessings The ones you can't afford She looked to me and through the past Led the present Beyond my able grasp To boundless entropy Opted to drink from heaven's bowl Til you vanish On reason's golden horse The violent consumes the calm And the dreamer falls apart Infinite repression And it always seems to find its way back home I think I found someone really neat He isn't too loud, quite discreet Don't feel bad about our thing not working out I mean You can't say you're getting mad You even paused to pray out loud Just relax and enjoy how this plays out It's nice That we're still such fleeting friends When lying naked on the bed Was lame and everything that I made out To mean That our hearts will never sink Tie our hands to quilted sheets Don't feel bad Don't feel bad You know that it's time for me to sleep Wake me up before you leave Just be glad Just be glad That I found someone out there

Is this the theatre of my life? I can't remember feeling better Who'd think the memories wouldn't die? But simply fade into everything that meets the eye I come to life and die again I come to life and die again Why don't the people turn to cry? I'm sick of bathing in silence Drowning to eat New normal, mortal affliction style Looks like a handful of borrowed needles to the eye I come to life and die again I come to life and die while Contemplating living Every single day it feels like something Plans to take me with it Never be the same I come to life and die again I come to life and die while Contemplating living Every single day it feels like something Plans to take me with it Never be the same Contemplating living Every single day it feels like something Plans to take me with it Never be the same

Pick apart the genome Map the chromosome and Tell me why I tick this way Bleeding books to vaulted ceilings Extricate the demon Discard the usual when Prying eyes are all but seedless Pushing hard for God's forgiveness Tell me tales of the resurrection Outfox fate and live forever Can you tell the difference? Assess the withered soul then Settle in the final sunset Taking odds on fate's appearance Wait until the morning Outlast the crucible then Early hours turn to minutes Every breath is second stealing Tell me tales of the resurrection Outfox fate and live forever You tried to run from this The unseen hand The darkness and the abyss Well, what do you think? Was it worth your time? The never ending scheme of denial Now everything is bliss Feelings adorn the walls Like a long forgotten kiss But it seems to me you're unconvinced Pulled away in a reluctant exodus Do you want to try your luck and play again, and again and again and again and again? Or can we put this chapter away? What do you say? Tell me tales of the resurrection, please Can I find my way back? And live for-
