Nihilist Blues

I've been climbing up the walls to escape the sinking feeling But I can't hide from the nihilist at my door Buried in the basement floor, didn't know what I had planted It blossomed with all the heart of a cold war I'm a spirit in a tomb Won't somebody raise the roof? I'm going white, I'm going black, I'm going blue Do you mind if I'm exhumed? I'm the ashes in the plume I'm a beggar in the ruin I'm peaking out, I'm burning up, I'm shooting through I'm only lonely for the true Paradise is in my soul, and I'm terrified I can't get out I'm lost in a labyrinth, we are lost in a labyrinth Paradise is in my soul, and I'm terrified I can't get out I'm lost in a labyrinth, we are lost in a labyrinth Please, don't follow Paradise is in my soul, and I'm terrified I can't get out I'm lost in a labyrinth, we are lost in a labyrinth Please, don't follow Light as a feather, stiff as a board I sink to the floor, I sink to the floor You were in my dream last night, but your face was someone else's A twitch in my spine, a mutual disorder Isolating neophyte, too afraid to taste your conscience You march in the dark, little lamb to the slaughter I'm a spirit in a tomb Won't somebody raise the roof? I'm going white, I'm going black, I'm going blue Do you mind if I'm exhumed? I'm the ashes in the plume I'm a beggar in the ruin I'm peaking out, I'm burning up, I'm shooting through I'm only lonely for the true Paradise is in my soul, and I'm terrified I can't get out I'm lost in a labyrinth, we are lost in a labyrinth Please, don't follow Paradise is in my soul, and I'm terrified I can't get out I'm lost in a labyrinth, we are lost in a labyrinth Please, don't follow Please, don't follow Please, don't follow Please, don't follow Please, don't follow Please, don't follow I've been climbing up the walls to escape the sinking feeling But I can't hide from the nihilist at my door
