Prayer Position

Another day pulls me down to my knees
And hold the gun to my fucking head
Can't feel a thing
Prayer position holding my life above the muck
Oh god, I'm speaking in swirling bowls
And now the walls are laughing in silence
Spiraling down to the floor
Can't feel a thing
My condition eating me down to the core
When will it end, when is it over and when can I live?
The bar is held down on my throat
Kicking and screaming
I live this life down in a hole
Down in a hole
Take away misery tomorrow
Shine the light and end this dimming glow
Take away misery tomorrow
Shine the light to end this dimming glow
The day is gone
Now turns the night
Our bodies glow ever so bright
The crash is done
We reach new highs
Our bodies glow ever so bright
Venture through these eyes
Venture through these eyes and lose all time
Scratch the itch and murder the body for pleasure
Sparking it up, breathing the fire we crave
Guzzle it down, feeling the sparkle together
Ante it up and blow me away for the high, let's go
What are we doing and where have the morals all gone?
Now is the time, this is the feeling we treasure
You won't remember, but godamnit it's fine
The bar is held down on my throat
Kicking and screaming
I live this life down in a hole
Take away misery tomorrow
Shine the light and end this dimming glow
Take away misery tomorrow
Shine the light to end this dimming glow
Stomp my head, throw it down in a hole
Stomp on my heart, let's go
Stomp my head, throw it down in a hole
Stomp on my heart, let's go
Stomp my head, throw it down in a hole
Blowing your way, let's go
Blowing your way, let's go
