I scale the razor while I rope over the dead space and arrows sticking out that bullseye tattooed on my breastplate
|
I'm high flying, tasting the poison on the clouds breath, a little bit too nervous just to follow when that crowds steps
|
I break, break, into little tiny pieces and vanish and you can take, take all the memories and make patterns of em
|
and say, say, that you'll never think about me when they ask
|
and if they don't look like they trust you can turn around and dash
|
and this is awful to say but I don't think you ever needed me
|
that tooth was through your lip before you ever started eating me
|
beatin' it downs not what you need to be taught here, I'm beggin you just to stop for a little bit
|
and let that broken record play for you
|
and you can smell the smoke from all the pain it took to lay its groove
|
and fall into that place where you can die from it or face the truth
|
it's silly, 'cause I all see is danger when I lay with you
|
the voices start talking and saying
|
|
I know they say happiness is a warm gun, and sorrow is a cold jagged blade
|
I know they say happiness is a warm gun
|
I know they say happiness is a warm gun, and sorrow is a cold jagged blade
|
I know they say happiness is a warm gun and I got it torn and it aimed at your face
|
|
How come your eyes hurt me so bad?
|
mirrors or windows? can you feel that? how would you describe that?
|
I fear I'm too simple. How come your hands are so, so cold?
|
my skin or yours? no circulation, heavy pulse
|
I fear with every use to me my aneurism now
|
that caution so convincing, fully engage the arm hairs, drys out the mouth
|
it's alkiline, count the cate, that courage, that now's the time
|
that head devise, spin, spin, with a big fake grin and the skin gettin thicker by the blink
|
know the ill by the stink and the length of the beard
|
know the real by the stare and the feel way
|
know the real by the gut, know to seal your convictions with steel
|
know steal by how it stings your feelings, no further advice
|
no cure for the vice, no feelings searing like spice in a con life
|
with the fears like contacts and never call any backs, what's up
|
and I feel foul 'bout it, but so much lighter 'bout it, right?
|
|
I know they say happiness is a warm gun, and sorrow is a cold jagged blade
|
I know they say happiness is a warm gun
|
I know they say happiness is a warm gun, and sorrow is a cold jagged blade
|
I know they say happiness is a warm gun and I got it torn and it aimed at your face
