Choking slowly, broken hearted
Don't look now, here's what you started
I swore I'd be there 'til the end, we're bitter now but better friends
I climbed out limbless to the ledge to bask in my last true regret
Lay my heavy head here down to sleep
And 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 fever dream tough pill to swallow
I swore I'd be there 'til the end, you're better off, your bitterness
I climbed out lifeless to the edge, I waved goodbye and lept, I...
Lay my heavy head here down to sleep
And I pray to Abraxas 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 street, 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
And I pray to Abraxas my soul to keep
Lay my heavy head here down to dream
And wake up with this lead poisoning
