Thrice - Blood Clots And Black Holes lyrics

rate me

here's your new drug

shoot it in the left eye

feel it on the right side

no it's not love

it sets up shop behind your ribcage

building blood clots and black holes

like using an axe 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 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 unamerican

i'm breaking down

lift the veil, it's not medicine

and my heart fails, time and time again
