[Verse 1]

I've bled myself into a trance

I oil my skin, I'm my own man


[Verse 2]

My hand is red, sometimes it stains

I work myself up into another state


[Chorus 1]

Sweet pills, inject me

I will function correctly

I've filled my memory

With bats that found no belfry

I break like tinfoil

Protecting all that's been spoiled

If I crush -- collect me

Your love won't resurrect me

But they will


[Bridge]

I've let myself one line too far

My hand is red, I feel so loved


[Chorus 2]

Sweet pills, inject me

I will function correctly

I've filled my memory

With bats that found no belfry

I brеak like tinfoil

Protecting all that's been spoiled

If I crush -- collеct me

Your love won't resurrect me

But they will


[Outro]

Shrink into your chair again and watch

Just watch, don't engage

No use to engage the two shirtless drunks

Beating each other into a pulp

Toppling over the balcony railing

(Repeat until it starts to rhyme)

(Repeat and pray to stop in time)

A bloody, screaming tangle of veiny fists and cigarette smoke

We move and we unfurl

The world beneath the world

We move and we unfurl

The world beneath the world
