The Divine Zero

Maybe I could swim into your thoughts like your drugs do

Paralyze your body

Sick and tired of waking up too

Burning eyes and cigarettes

I’m falling through the couch like a suicide mission tonight

My God, here comes the downside

Wild eyes of terror pray for sex on the beach while

Oceans of kerosene will soak into me

I'm not meant for this world, I just don't see the point

So I don’t think about it, don’t over think about it

And life is a joke

But everything’s riding on me tonight

Been counting the stars and scars

How I’m becoming a work of art

In desperate times and desperate measures

I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside

A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile

The whispered words “you’d better hide the bullets”

You stayed on the phone and talked to me day and night

Trigger my nightmare once again

And it’s fucking loaded in hand

And we’ll let the fire rage

The smoke and the drowning flames

My bedroom computer light is the

Only menace to my new faux wooden blinds

In desperate times and desperate measures

I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside

A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile

Now, I only pray when it all goes down

I’ll be surrounded by all of the ones I've loved and cared about

And then burn it down

And life is a joke

But at least I can love you, naked and tattooed

Counting the stars and scars

And if the pain is a sound, let’s slow it down

Desperate times and desperate measures

I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside

A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile

Now, I only pray when it all goes down

I’ll be surrounded by all of the ones I've loved and cared about

And then burn it down

Your serotonin's gone

The kerosene is gone

The sunset is gone

So hold on

Your serotonin's gone

The kerosene is gone

The sunset is gone

All gone
