How many months have passed since I have seen the light of day?
Last I checked the windows weren't this soft vignette of gray
Oh well, we'll see, eventually, how well I can adapt back to normalcy
Two tabs left me open: one's accruing at the bar
And, well, the other makes messy fingers, none but stains upon the floor
Oh goddam me, I could use some coffee
With lots of room for sugar... and kill myself
Sell my bass, let's leave this place
We could run away forever, tell the past it's been a pleasure
No longer dying for someone that I just live with
When I should go on living with someone that I would die for
Dreamt my youth away for a woman I could trust
Finally a girl who loves as deeply as she lusts
But then when it's in your hands, it all just turns to dust
So close this case, and fuck the United States
We could run away forever, tell the past that we've had better
No longer dying for someone that I just live with
When I should go on living with someone that I would die for
Oh yeah, I forgot this song was supposed to be about you

Put me down, I've been a bad, bad boy
Out of turn, the devil's toy
Make me humble, make me clean
Please, oh, please beat it out of me
Cut my belt loop one notch thinner
'Til I wither away a waste
Squeeze me tightly, boa constrictor
Squeeze, yeah
Feel it course through me
Poison by degrees
All my eggs into one basket
'Til it all becomes a case
Retrofitting my synapses
Revive a sacred place
Sold my soul in search of truth
Bottled up 100-proof
Took my cup, drank it up
I drink therefore the Great I Am
Feel it course through me
Poison by degrees

Prove it in movement
Illuminate, wash away
The dissonance
Daytimes spent chasing somnambulant strains
Carving pathways for worms in veins
Is it possession? or a vacuous design?
This numb sensation swirling through my spine
Use me, I'm only human
All-consuming
Your blood in mine
Choking on loathing
Am I broken?
Fill my soul with revelation
To dash my skull against a wall...
When will I break through?
Witlessly driven to self-battery
I drag my corpse through the refinery
Choking on loathing
Am I broken?
Fill my soul with revelation
Proven in movement
Illuminate, wash away
The dissonance

I'm mixing chemicals to wake my consciousness
Maximum exposure to antioxidants
Suffocate me dry, my love
Prithee sip my soul discretely
The blood on your lips is treacly
Mind over matter
If it happens, it happens
I ain't got nothin' else to prove
Art not without ambition?
The path before you like a dagger in your eyes
Heaving aspirations smothered in surmise
Stay persistent to whatever interests you
Life's a journey though you're not the hero in it
And inspiration's bullshit
Mind over matter
If it happens, it happens
I ain't got nothin' left to lose
Art not without ambition?
It'll work out
Or maybe it won't
What about you?
Mind over matter
If it happens, it happens
I ain't got nothin' else to prove
Art not without ambition?
Mind over matter
If it happens, it happens
I ain't got nothin' left to lose
Art not without ambition?
