Lead Poisoning

Lyrics:

Choking slowly broken hearted
Don't look now , here's what you started
And I swore I'd be there till the end, We're bitter now but better friends
I climbed out limbless to the ledge to bask in my last true regrets

Lay my heavy head here down to sleep
I pray to abraxas my soul to keep
Lay my heavy head here down to dream
Wake up with this lead poisoning


Sobbing softly lost and hollow
This fevered dream tough pill to swallow
And I swore I'd be there to the end, You're better off your bitterness
I climbed out lifeless to the edge, I waved goodbye and leapt high

Lay my heavy head here down to sleep
Now pray to a brass fist my soul to keep
Lay my heavy head here down to dream
Awaken to the blood and sweat and screams


Woke up here on Monday morning
This old tree on this dark corner
Waiting here for what tomorrow brings
Silver Lake mercury mining
This mistake no silver lining
Waiting for a bullet train to bring me my lead poisoning

My lead poisoning

Lay my heavy head here down to sleep
I pray to abraxas my soul to keep
Lay my heavy head here down to dream
Wake up with this lead poisoning

I had lead poisoning as a kid, when I was 2, and seeing this track title made me laugh for a good 5 minutes. Excellent song.

[Bo0sh79]

is it me, or are most of the songs on This Addiction starting off kind of slow/bad and get better as the song goes on... I like the rifts at the end of the songs, but the beginning are kind of chitty.
