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 all right No, it's not love Though it 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
