Capsule Face

Intro:

Capital face, give me a pill

You're a disgrace, give me a pill

Stopping the shakes, give me a pill

I've made mistakes, give me a pill...

Verse:

Give us a capsule to blot out the noise

Useless regalia, I just couldn't care

All I remember is what happens next

All I'm forgetting is what doesn't matter

I live alone now, I love only me

I sleep on my own now, give it for free

My bed is half empty, I'm just the same

Under the floor boards is my claim to shame

Give us a reason to get up for work

Anything really, can't give a damn

The morning will find me with dust in my mug

Hanging my head out open windows

I wasn't home now, leave me a ring

Let's just be friends before it's a thing

My kitty's arrived, maybe he'll stay

Everything's clean, let's keep it that way

Chorus:

Give me a pill to blanket the void!

Give me the means to what was destroyed!

Give me the truth that was promised to me!

Give me the vague and ambiguity!

Verse:

Give us a go and tell me we're fine

Trusted to you, we're trusting you too

Reign the belonging but settle us square

Giving us something, just isn't worth it

Chew it and pick, tones of the quick

Righteous relation with and befit

Pocketed something of which wasn't paid

Stopped at the door at which he delayed

Give us a chance to sound the alarm

Pray that we're straight or sane at the least

Maybe we're fine or maybe we're beasts

I bet that you're loss is kind of our feast

And get us so hammered we see none but you

Pouring it straight at quarter past noon

Giving us tunnels for which to see through

Shedding the light that comes from the brew

And please us with words of the approach

Corner us bleak and on us bestow

The blessing of exile to foreign lands

Made up of capsules that bite at our toes.

Chorus:

Give me a pill to blanket the void!

Give me the means to what was destroyed!

Give me the truth that was promised to me!

Give me the vague and ambiguity!

Give me the burn so I may complain!

Give me the word that flattens the pain!

Give me the sphere that I don't deserve!

Give me the space so I can return!...
