[Intro]

Felt kinda strange when I woke up this morning

Like thousands of weapons were aiming at me

Still can’t explain where the hope went this morning

The face out of focus and changing is me


[Verse 1]

Oscillator, rock drop through paper

Bach Rob-adeus the Pol Pot Tomb Raider

Hold stock in painters and old boxing trainers

The nook-and-cran crooked man, juice box crusader

The guap is our savior, the head sweats with fever

New York ministers, jet set believer

Up march the soldiers to the gates by the bleachers

With Maglites, bagpipe, last rites procedure

Went off with a hitch, stitches ripped as I took a stride

Bricks fix, money shot, hungry flock, look surprised

Bus, train, automo, sword’ll flow, could’ve died

But Baron Von Terabyte Fahrenheit has books to hide

(Look alive)

Time is gold when you hold it dear

Feeling wrong, just don’t look at me like I’m supposed to care

Weather front, I don’t object to when you throw a chair

Get over it, life goes on, man the fuck up, grow a pair

So aware, so sew these army patches on

To the vest in pattern, to the tattered, torn, and shrapnel-bombed

Axle shot cut into the magic wand

Rabbit has to peer into a tearful when the laughter’s gone

Valor prompt meat, points people picked

Roadhouse dartboards, poisonous-tipped

Head, tail, who could loot your coins that’ll flip

With a grip on that old fable, stapled, joined at the hips


[Chorus]

My head is underwater, my teeth hold my tongue

My life is in your hands and your hands own a gun

My eyes are barely open, my arms weigh a ton

My legs aren’t even working, but my feet wanna run

My head is underwater, my teeth hold my tongue

My life is in your hands and your hands own a gun

My eyes are barely open, my arms weigh a ton

My legs aren’t even working, but my feet wanna run


[Intro]

Felt kind of strange when I woke up this morning

Like thousands of weapons were aiming at me

Still can’t explain where the hope went this morning

The face out of focus and changing is me


[Verse 2]

Now when in the world did my guards get their throats slashed?

Why in the hell wasn’t well enough left right?

Just remind me why I’m here with mild cramps in both calves

Don’t forget broken ribs, choking with my chest tight

Let’s wife this bullet, eye-gouge the madness

Pack up the wagon and tie down the mattress

Scoop up the son of a governor of images

Date-rape the system, placate the masses

What a way to crash, it’s all or none now

Woozy from the chloroform, tore a funhouse

Sorta dumbfound as a heartless drum sounds

At two hundred beats, too weak to pour that rum out

See, saints don’t swoon for a dreg like me

With a basket wove for every single egg I’ve reaped

Asleep at the wheel and in the headlights’ lead

And I paid for this one double, hope the next life’s free


[Chorus]

My head is underwater, my teeth hold my tongue

My life is in your hands and your hands own a gun

My eyes are barely open, my arms weigh a ton

My legs aren’t even working, but my feet wanna run

My head is underwater, my teeth hold my tongue

My life is in your hands and your hands own a gun

My eyes are barely open, my arms weigh a ton

My legs aren’t even working, but my feet wanna run

My head is underwater, my teeth hold my tongue

My life is in your hands and your hands own a gun

My eyes are barely open, my arms weigh a ton

My legs aren’t even working, but my feet wanna run
