Burns in the mattress from tourniquet practice You curve in a permanent back bend to serve to this madness And searching for purpose in furniture cracks And left turning sermons into serpents Murder merchants earning stacks Forty-five on the table Run away if you're able Stains in the carpet, Your blades have been sharpened You break in the weight of the darkness You slave to the hardship and waiting for change is just something you say to us To save your face from breaking bad, You're safer in a paper bag Lay it down on the table Say it now, You're no angel Run away if you're able Blowing smoke through your halo I was hell bent on separating wigs They were hoping I would hesitate again But my mind is on the edge of this I'm dreaded with the pen and I said I'd never let it get the leverage again But I said it with grin, Running out of medicine to give Running out of letters to mend together and send Better settle with the bed I'm in again Let it be, You gotta meddle with the pigs Cut us down if you're able Forty-five on the table Run away if you're able Blowing smoke through your halo Burns in the mattress from tourniquet practice You curve in a permanent back bend
