Share the Body

Watching from the bottom of a strangers mind
 Vicarious life, chemical divide
 The epidemic of our time
 A voluntary genocide
 He's wielding a needle, it's laced with ambition
 Set on finding forever or blacking out the friction
 She's clutching a bottle, conscripted prescription
 Deaf to my dissent, void of all volition
 Injecting fire straight into the veins
 Nothing will cauterize the wound where I remain
 Ingesting tiny stars one by one
 One by one, I come undone
 Passenger to my own life
 Trapped inside, fastened to the vice
 Fading out, fading away
 Burning in a bliss you can't sustain
 Am I a hedonist or solipsist?
 Barbiturate tourniquets drip, drip
 A sycophant's sea of delusion
 Drowning in an empty conclusion
 Come shoot me up into the night
 Blood moon: the shadow in my skin
 The window of my soul was sealed, but I'll still let you in
 Blood moon: shiver through my mind
 Only the need is real, feel whatever I can to make sure I can't feel
 All the hell in my veins
 Can't dissipate the pain
 All the hell in my veins
 Won't wash away your face
 So let us go then, you and I
 Watch the sky drift into sleep, etherized
 Collapsing stars, condemned to their cosmic graves
 Bleeding light for the gain of some far off race
 The fog hangs like thieves, there must be guilt in these streets
 Place your hand on my wrist, it's not like we'll be missed
 Do I dare shake the need from our skin?
 Do I dare rattle the rust, corroding me from within?
 The lechery, the treachery, oh come, Love, sit next to me
 This anatomy is built like tragedy
 Don't you know me by these scars? These marks where I are?
 I mean I am, I mean I was, I was supposed to be someone

 Blood moon: the shadow in my skin
 The window of my soul was sealed, but I'll still let you in
 Blood moon: shiver through my mind
 Only the need is real, feel whatever I can to make sure I can't feel
 Every fix is a prayer
 Every high a sacrifice
 We worship desire at the altar of dependence
 I hit the bottom, then it hit me back

 Incarnation of society
