lyrics

+++DUMB DEAD EYES+++
i’m the saddest sadist
i’m the llama
llama lamest
in the world
i spend my days damning daemons
and my nights shaman shaming
in my bed building bedlam

but why do we sleep
why do we sleep
what do we need
we can’t get when we’re awake
why can’t i sleep
why can’t i sleep
what’s different in me?

i condemn contentment
create my own containment
quarantined. cremated.
salt the earth beneath me
i’ve been hailing halos
to hang over my head
but this one’s caught my neck
like words that i can’t understand

why do we speak
why do we speak
there’s nothing to say
no meaning to it all
why can’t i speak
why can’t i speak
what’s fucked up in me?

why can’t i breathe
why can’t i breathe
why can’t i breathe?

i’ve got dead dumb eyes
dead dumb eyes
backwards mouth
crooked spine
dead dumb eyes
dead dumb eyes
bear in mind
