HANGMAN - Intellectual

[Intro]

Spent last night watching flies crawl

Hearing TV static down a dark hall

I keep my secrets in a bag, in the back, buried

Razorblade, choke chain, and I'm breathing heavy (Ah)

Hail Mary, I have sinned again

I've been trying to cut off all my demons, but we're friends again

Hangman, swinging at the end of my rope

I'm only numb for the moment, 'cause I doubled the dose

Troubled waters sinkin' my boat

Face above the waves, but I can’t flow

I been California dreaming every time my eyes close

Sleep is for the weak, God, I want to sleep for a week though

Drugs in my vеins, I got lead bones

Paradise on thе edge of my vision, I can't get close

I'm addicted to a kind madness, chasing white rabbits

Metal to my temple habit

And I've been driving all night, just riding on a whiskey high

Cigarettes after sex in my car help to clear my mind

I have so many thoughts, but they get dangerous after dark

Softly haunting like bad dreams and melodies

Inside, there's a quiet riot (Hush, hush)

Silence right before the violence (Hush, hush)

Countdown 'til I'm face down lying on the carpet, lights out

Undermedicated, I keep my other side locked up in the basement

Bitch, I bite back, do you really want to see it?

Jekyll when I'm fine, I can't Hyde what's underneath

I'm vicious every time I show my teeth

Spent last night watching flies crawl

Hearing TV static down a dark hall

Keep my secrets in a bag, in the back, buried

Razorblade, choke chain, and I'm breathing heavy

The only thing louder than my head is my stereo

Swan Songs screaming out the radio

I'm a bottle of Everclear away to dismantle me

It's a Molotov birthday, light the candle and set me free

And I've been driving all night, just riding on a whiskey high

Cigarettes after sex in my car help to clear my mind

I have so many thoughts but they get dangerous after dark

Softly haunting like bad dreams and melodies, yeah
