Strange interactions in the night
Strange interactions in the night
I walk along the devil's spine (as I rise)
Atop the plateau of a vaguely restless mind
Might need a greater length of time
Between the comedown and the high
Always assumed I would be wise (by this time)
Now there's a version of me I don't recognize
You turn to ask "are you alright?"
If I hold my breath as long as I might
Let my lips turn blue as I look on the bright side
Maybe I will rise to the fight
Maybe I'm sleeping on the couch tonight
Can't find a place to place the blame
This mega city has gone practically insane
The siren's shine lights bleak terrain (as I lie)
Sleep so near waking that it's hardly worth the name
We tried to drink the fire down (good faith aside)
Numb out the chaos that surrounds this hallowed lounge
Under the overpass we found (newer vice)
Evidence of exodus and needles on the ground
If I hold my breath as long as I might
Let my lips turn blue as I look on the bright side
Maybe I will rise to the fight
Maybe I'm sleeping on the couch tonight
If I hold my breath as long as you say
Paint your lips bright red as your pray for a good day
Maybe we can find newer veins
Maybe solutions don't all mean the same thing
Might need a greater length of time (good faith aside)
Between the comedown and the latest high (we toe new lines)
We climbed the tower, we swung from heights (as I rise)
In resurrection I'll stay dry, strange interactions in the night
These streets they hardly look the same (this tired game)
Sometimes I think I am to blame for all the change (echoes your name)
These pangs of love are drunk and strange (break my stride)
You turn to ask "are you alright?", strange interactions in the night
You turn to ask "are you alright?"
