lyrics

here I am small town
green leaves all around
something in the air
subtle dispair
smoke in my lungs
blood in my alcohol
needles pinprick
the hearts mainline

and in this time
I wake in wine
7 am to drink
sunshine

and it burns in my throat
sadness thoughts evoke
in sober waking life
souls weather the same strife

do a line stay alive
go for a long drive
wait the sunrise once again
bare the night to see the light
in a conscious sin
and wait on the world
to spin again

and in this time
I wait in line
as plots unfold
in different minds

and my helpless heart it burns
my tortured soul it yearns
as all my love breeds hurt
and my tears fall to dirt

and Im lost in a whirlpool
and I gasp for air
hollow bodied empty m inded fools
drown their love and care
in 30 dollar excstasy
downing dex and drink
huffing highs lost memories
slowing thoughts to think

as all words blur and slur
and my listening ears wont cure
the sweet nothingness allure
amidst all the hurt

as day breaks, night falls
among greenery
pills pop, tabs drop
a change of mind
as hearts beat, repeat
circulate scenery
as souls search
and some go blind
