lyrics

You finally ripped the bandage off.
It pulled off the scab and blood drips to the floor, some detective trace to nowhere, the blade of a knife, or the edge of a bridge.

I'm forcing myself awake, day by day. Life goes on as the colors drain.

I'm speaking from experience: down the street, not across.
Across the street is where the cowards live in hospital beds with bellies full of pills.
I'm speaking from experience: take more than you think.
The charcoal tastes like shit, not to mention the tubes in your stomach.
Or, think one thousand four hundred and ninety six feet.

I'll be laughing all the way to the ground as life goes on around me.
