Ultraviolence

Drink myself to sleep
Like a riddle in a pen
Like a gameshow where the host
Knows who'll win in the end
When the morning comes
We have already won ourselves
And lost the war

Leave me in silence
And ultraviolence
I am writing you off
On the pages of your
Obituary
I never carried
That weight, boy
But bet your ass I felt it

Time is ticking by
It's a reaper, and a friend
And he's closing the distance
Between me and the end
And trickle forth
Like the blood of the lamb
Sacrificed to keep us
Hand in hand

Betray my hopeless
And leave me soulless
I am cutting you off
On a razor's edge
And numb my body
And kill me softly
I'm a second away
From writing you off

So (Please) lead me away and (Don't)
I will follow (Go)
You to my grave
And in the end
We're all the same
Chemical wasteland
