The body`s singing without speaking.
You bit your brass ring off like a monster,
wouldn`t leave you alone.
You skinned the bastard to his bones in case you got cold.
Normally sent with a dream,
I had to laugh when I woke to the sound of the gun.
That was the best nightmare that I just woke up from.
Normally sent with a heart attack,
all your attempts were canonized.
Blessed with a wreck of a heart of lead,
I broke my back to spite my spine.
Delightful ring around your neck, you fool them all.
Don`t I feel so goddamn worthless.
I`ll bet that took all of your last nerve,
but you`re used to this.
it`s not plugged in, but the phone is ringing.
Time`s up for devouring, your appeal`s waning.
You want to right the wrongs,
but you chewed up everyone that you spit on.
Sometimes halcyon weeks make me believe
I should be relieved enough.
You were the best nightmare that I just woke up from.
The last night that I waited on
(You`ll lose your sleep in time)
Your mind knows what your body wants
(You`ll lose your step in time)
You move so fast sometimes.
I fell so far behind.
You`ll lose your step in time.
