Anywhere, is there a place where the lights never go out?
If I don’t come out alive you’ll find my body on your doorstep.
I am the most unstable
I am so unable to distinguish this from that
The blood pumped into my heart turns black
It cuts like a knife across my back
Leave it to me, in recovery, still in this aftermath
I am weak, not to mention drained
Not to mention sick.
With us it’s an endless book of what I can’t explain
A puff from these bruised lungs
Another night alone, another night to complain
Since when is one word enough
It’s a world of smiles behind hearts too tough
Could tonight be an excuse for a relapse
I have not breathed enough chemicals to be immune
But we still got our memories and our maps
Afraid this will end again with another silent collapse
This world was created to be destroyed
But you take me out and put me back like a toy
And those numbers that you gladly use
Like a spotless alibi, like a perfect decoy
So with your blinded eyes you call truce
