Here's your new drug

Shoot it in the left eye 

Feel it on the right side

No it's not love 

Though it sets up shop behind your cage

Building blood clots and black holes

Like using an ax to pull a sliver from your skin



And they say this is medicine

An overdose of oxygen 

A severed head 

As sedative



To be at peace would be a sin

And surely un-american

I'm breaking



Here's your new blood

Transfusion took us all night 

Tell us that you're all right

No it's not love

Though it feels like fire inside of your veins

Burning right beneath the wrist

Begging for a razor's kiss

To free it from your skin 



And they say this is medicine

An overdose of oxygen 

A severed head 

As sedative



To be at peace would be a sin 

And surely un-american 

I'm breaking down

Down

Down 

Down 

I'm breaking down



Lift the veil, its not medicine

And my heart fails, time and time again
