Iodine

108 6 1
                                    

I say I wanna be healthy

But I turn up the noise

The IV drips a steady stream of poison

I think I'm just in love with the feeling

Break my bones so I can feel them healing

"Crazy" is I believe the medical term

When we wanna recover but we don't wanna learn

Keep breaking what's been fixed a thousand times

And gimme some more of that iodine

I can't make reality connect

I push till I have nothing left

But if we want to wake up

Why we still singin' these lullabies?

I'll run in circles till I crash

One day these steps will be my last

But if we want to wake up

Why we still singin' these lullabies

I say I wanna be happy

But I quickly forget

Will I sabotage all the good I've got left?

Depression is like a big fur coat

It's made of dead things but it keeps me warm

"Crazy" is I believe the medical term

When we wanna recover but we don't wanna learn

Keep breaking what's been fixed a thousand times

And gimme some more of that iodine

I can't make reality connect

I push till I have nothing left

But if we want to wake up

Why we still singin' these lullabies?

I'll run in circles till I crash

One day these steps will be my last

So if we want to wake up

Why we still singin' these lullabies

I don't like pain but I bring it to life

I don't like scars but I'm good with a knife

I don't like tears but I'm starting to cry

When I realise I'm destroying my life

I do this to myself

I do this to myself

Stop blaming someone else

We do this to ourselves

I can't make reality connect

I push till I have nothing left

But if we want to wake up

Why we still singin' these lullabies?

I'll run in circles till I crash

One day these steps will be my last

So if we want to wake up

Why we still singin' these lullabies

So if we want to wake up

Why we still singin' these,

Why we still singin' these lullabies

So there we have it. This song is called iodine and it's on their first album Scripted.

Also I want to say congratulations to Josh Kincheloe (the bassist) who recently got married to a beautiful woman.

Oh and one more thing... Please check out my brothers book called The Reapers Heart. I will be posting it very soon.

Thanks guys :)
