can't explain

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
