|
I'm a great oasis |
|
Yeah I'm a mirage |
|
I'm a beam of old light from a vanquished star and I'll only guide you into the dark |
|
I'm a parasite with a tapeworm |
|
Yeah I got a bulletproof vest |
|
Knowing my bad luck I ain't ever gonna die so the good will never get any rest |
|
Come bail me out of the state I'm in |
|
The drinks I've had are no match for the truth |
|
The crowd down here put it's teeth in us |
|
But the cure's more dangerous than the venom is |
|
So we leave it in |
|
And we do those things that make us forget that we're dying here |
|
But we're dying here |
|
So love your blood while you can |
|
Let it warm your freezing hands |
|
I'm a dog-less master |
|
Yeah I'm a master-less dog |
|
When the whip and the tether are put aside forever |
|
I'm an ox that wanders into the swap |
|
I'm a rattlesnake across a braided rope |
|
I'm the demon on your side of the chalk |
|
If I caught them girls who started them fires |
|
They'll track me down in the fog |
|
Come bail me out of the state I'm in |
|
The drinks I've had are no match for the truth |
|
The crowd down here put it's teeth in us |
|
But the cure's more dangerous than the venom is |
|
So we leave it in |
|
And we do those things that make us forget that we're dying here |
|
But we're dying here |
|
So love your blood while you can |
|
Let it warm your freezing hands |
|
You put a hex me women |
|
You're a thinner, you're a thinner |
|
Yeah and these are nuclear winters |
|
Atomic black winters |
|
I kept the fire alive because |
|
I'm a sinner, I'm a sinner |
|
Come here and let me boil your blood |
|
I'm a train as long as the track |
|
I am concurrently outbound and just now getting back |
|
They strung me up by a rope as tall as the trees |
|
Though I land my two feet I still sway in the breeze |
