Unconscious

Don't you dare call the doctor now
I've got my own prescription
It's a desperate venom from the pen
That forged my benediction

'Cause I'm built to self-destruct
My only habit's giving up
Now I'm addicted to these bitter things
I've only tasted once

Oh distortion, distraction
Turn my static to a song
Diversion, defusion
Pulse's panic turning off

'Cause if we're being honest
I want to be unconscious
Hold me till I see the light
If we're being honest
I don't know if I can stop this
I feel like someone else tonight
As I count down to the blackout

Another pretty face
Another unwanted confession
If we're counting deadly sins, well then
I wish I'd stopped at seven

You say there's more to life, ok
I'll try if you insist
When every glass is empty
I'll be an optimist

'Cause if we're being honest
I want to be unconscious
Hold me till I see the light
If we're being honest
I don't know if I can stop this
I feel like someone else tonight

As I count down to the blackout
As I bleed into the walls
I'm on dangerous terrain
And now I'm bracing for the fall
It's a risk I shouldn't mess with
But I love to mess around
So easy to be tempted
When you're already knocked down

All these things I'd never do
I'm drifting far away from you
In a faded basement I'll forget
Just one more nightmare coming true

There's a warmth hid
In the darkness
How could I go back now?
I'm crying
Still climbing
Won't find my way out

'Cause if we're being honest
I want to be unconscious
Hold me till I see the light
If we're being honest
I don't know if I can stop this
I feel like someone
Oh, I must be someone else
