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
