Blood Clots and Black Holes

Here's your new drug

Shoot it in the left eye, feel it on the right side

No, it's not love, though it sets up shop behind your ribcage

Building blood clots and black holes

Like using an axe to pull a sliver from your skin

And they say this is medicine, an overdose of oxygen

A severed head as sedative

To be at peace would be a sin and surely un-American

I'm breaking

Here's your new blood

Transfusion took us all night, tell us that you're alright

No, it's not love, though feels like fire inside of your veins

Burning right beneath the wrist, begging for a razor's kiss

To free it from your skin

And they say this is medicine, an overdose of oxygen

A severed head as sedative

To be at peace would be a sin and surely un-American

I'm breaking down

Down, down, down

I'm breaking down

Lift the veil, it's not medicine

And my heart fails time and time again
