Dingus - Shrunken Heads lyrics

rate me

Wasted cigarettes hardly ash before <br />

There's something else to burn<br />

It's done, you're already moving on<br />

And the drunkard seeks scape<br />

Through the faded tint of empty bottles<br />

Leave no room to discover<br />

<br />

That it's always been in front of him, <br />

But he's never recognized<br />

That the more he runs, the more he's left behind<br />

Because horoscopes and shrunken heads<br />

Can't be without the numb<br />

Keep it burning<br />

<br />

For every hooker, there's a nun<br />

For every welcome, there's a shun<br />

It makes no sense to search forever<br />

When only so much can be done<br />

Nothing is fair when nothing's sufficient<br />

Continued mistakes to turn and neglect<br />

<br />

And the moment dies, and everybody cries<br />

For what could never be achieved<br />

But the broken hearts appear to be relieved<br />

<br />

And even if you're strictly sober<br />

You never take the glance<br />

Your haste can't make tomorrow sooner<br />

Your faded will can't pave the way at all<br />

Kicking off what's nipping at your heels<br />

Through it could support your feet<br />

<br />

And now, self-inflicted suffocation, poorly judged contemplation<br />

What's beyond this boring town, and what beauty laid within<br />

All those alcoholic routines, and all the faded friends and jobs? <br />

They have made you who you are<br />

You can't forget the roots from which you claim to be growing<br />

<br />

Burning cigarettes hardly give that sweet tobacco taste<br />

The time has come to recover<br />

<br />

Keep it burning<br />

Self-inflicted suffocation, poorly judged contemplation<br />

Keep it burning
