lyrics

I talk to you like through a pane of glass
My voice crackles, a bad receiver
Pressed against your shoulder

Did you expect to break the barrier
Between your mind and us outside of it?
Well I just don't believe there's time
To learn how to make peace before we die

But should you make your escape
Buried under a mail pile
Wherever you go you still carry with you
The skin you love to retreat into

Did you expect to break the barrier
Between your mind and us outside of it?
Well I just don't believe there's time
To learn how to make peace before we die

But a brain doctor has a stroke to feel better
And sociopaths prefer their coffee tastes bitter
But us addicts flail, lost, tripped out in a downpour
Where only laughter exists
All trauma cleansed in a cold shower

Take better care of me
Break character for you
Break character for me
Take better care of you

But who draws first?
