City of fear
chemistry crush
heighten the thought
blessed the crutch
pharmacy fed
heavenly kid
now that you're dead
when will you live
while you were safe
simple and vain
I saw a dog licking a chain
I saw a dog licking a chain
we were getting high with some broken hearts
that's how it started
dreaming up lies for the time we had
as if we might never run out of that
we were getting high with some broken hearts
that's how it started
Cutting the line, inhaling a kind
of peace in yourself and into your mind
the tension dissolves and seeing is easy
all of the hate that used to undo
reflected no more is passing on through
an ego unmade
bathed in a new sun
and see what I'm made from
Tighten your skin
sharpen your clothes
hoping to god nobody knows
being the boy
getting replaced
how could you tell?
who could you face?
floating away like I was five
I disconnect then I survive
It's who we hold when we're scared
it's what we give when we're poor
it's what you make of the blame
I'm not angry no more
Cutting the line, inhaling a kind
of peace in yourself and into your mind
the tension dissolves and seeing is easy
all of the hate that used to undo
reflected no more is passing on through
an ego unmade
bathed in a new sun
and see what I'm made from
