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
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
