Lyrics

Delirium

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There's a stain, there's a stain, there's a stain on the floor

I wanna soak, wanna scrub, wanna clean (anymore?)

But all the nurses are refusing to let me out of bed

And my eyes are pouring nightly

There's a crowd, there's a crowd, there's a crowd on my ward

I'm full of joy, full of glee, jubilation and more

These crazy stupid mother fuckers never leave me alone

And my lungs are wheezing slightly

There's a buzz, there's a buzz, there's a buzzing of bugs

From flower beetles, yellow jackets, silverfishes to slugs

It's always raining caterpillars from the circular fan

And my heart is pounding brightly

I swim in pharmaceuticals

I swim in pharmaceuticals

The medicine deactivates the things I take

I swim in pharmaceuticals

I swim in pharmaceuticals

The medicine deactivates the things I take

There's a voice, there's a voice, there's a voice in my head

It's rather soothing and it tells me I'd be better off dead

But if I beat maybe punch it even kick it away

Then everything will be (all rightly?)

I swim in pharmaceuticals

I swim in pharmaceuticals

The medicine deactivates the things I take

I swim in pharmaceuticals

I swim in pharmaceuticals

The medicine deactivates

I didn't know it was hot in the middle

I touched it once then I touched it a second time

'Cause I am that naive

A myriad of bright ideas

I didn't know I'd get caught in the middle

I touched it once and I touched it a second time

'Cause I am that naive

A myriad of bright ideas

I swim in pharmaceuticals

I swim in pharmaceuticals

The medicine deactivates the things I take

I swim in pharmaceuticals

I swim in pharmaceuticals

The medicine deactivates

I didn't know it was hot in the middle

I touched it once then I touched it a second time

'Cause I am that naive

A myriad of bright ideas

I didn't know I'd get caught in the middle

I touched it once then I touched it a second time

'Cause I am that naive

A myriad of bright ideas
