Dave Goes to Hollywood

We of blood frozen so thick, it cannot thaw
Joints lubricated by sweet alcohol
Liver dissolving, eyelids but heavy sheets
Ignorant bliss and the bloodshot secrets it will keep

Pills, if you wouldn't mind
Clouds of vapor to stretch out the miles
Hungover, we'll greet a certain death
With a flash of chipped tooth smile
Each cities' demons buried beneath
In this campaign of vice
Our drinking song, a reprise

A slow blur existence
Wading knee deep in sin
Clutch at the ulcer
Acknowledge the frailties within

At dawn we begin again

You who have never seen your breath, are you alive?
This mitten clenches in a fist to kiss this fucking world goodnight

Destroyer, my only keeper
I kneel unto your amber gates
(And) pray you'll kill the ugliness that sleep won't take away

Free drinks... they shall not kill us
They only warm our fucking bones!
But late at night, I can't forget your laugh
And everything I used to know

But I've never seen so many faces
But I've never felt this all alone
But I guess this is what I've always wanted
A four-wheeled coffin to call home

I will not ask another name
Disappearing faster than they came
Are you having fun?
Are you entertained?

Another heart-shaped bruise
Another friend back home I'll lose
Am I missing something?
What is left to prove?

Another heated first-name fuck
Another stroke of dead man's luck
Another year I can't replace
ANOTHER TEAR SENT DOWN HER FACE

At dawn we begin again
Till our deaths shall bring an end

You who have never seen your breath, are you alive?
This mitten clenches in a fist to kiss this fucking world goodnight

Destroyer, my only keeper
I kneel unto your amber gates
(And) pray you'll kill the ugliness that sleep won't take away
