Sedated

Just a little rush, babe
 To feel dizzy, to derail the mind of me
 Just a little hush, babe
 Our veins are busy but my heart's in atrophy
 Any way to distract and sedate
 Adding shadows to the walls of the cave
 You and I, nursing on a poison that never stung
 Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
 Somewhere for this, death and guns
 We are deaf, we are numb
 Free and young and we can feel none of it
 Something isn't right, babe
 I keep catching little words, but the meaning's thin
 I'm somewhere outside my life, babe
 I keep scratching, but somehow I can't get in
 So we're slaves to any semblance of touch
 Lord, we should quit but we love it too much
 Sedated, we're nursing on a poison that never stung
 Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
 Somewhere for this, death and guns
 We are deaf, we are numb
 Free and young and we can feel none of it
 Darlin', don't you, stand there watching, won't you
 Come and save me from it?
 Darlin', don't you, join in, you're supposed to
 Drag me away from it
 Any way to distract and sedate
 Adding shadows to the walls of the cave
 You and I, nursing on a poison that never stung
 Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
 Somewhere for this, death and guns
 We are deaf, we are numb
 Free and young and we can feel none of it
 Sedated, we're nursing on a poison that never stung
 Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
 Somewhere for this, death and guns
 We are deaf, we are numb
 Free and young and we can feel none of it
