Vital Signs

I got ways to tell you why I won't make it through
And these four walls tell the tales of some who do
Day after dusk I reach for the cold
Just to freeze the machine rattling my bones

Meds in a cup, sister says to drown them down
But my beating heart is the only thing keeping me around

The place I go to save my life is the place I can die
All I've been feeling is nothing inside
So burn the highways, light another fuse
I'm caught between living and emptying fumes

The city is alive with it's heartache
And it's vital signs are keeping me awake
Those streets ain't empty like they used to be
Somewhere I can still see my footsteps along the concrete

Meds in a cup, sister says to drown them down
But my future bride is the only cure keeping me around

The place I go to save my life is the place I can die
All I've been feeling is nothing inside
So burn the highways, light another fuse
I'm caught between living and emptying fumes
