Just a little rush, babe, to feel dizzy To derail the mind of me Just a little hush, babe; my veins are busy But my heart's in atrophy Any way To distract and sedate Adding shadows To the walls of the cave You and I, nursing on a Poison that never stung Our teeth and lungs are lined With the scum of it Somewhere for this, death and guns We are deaf, we are numb Free and young and we Can feel none of it Something isn't right, babe; I keep catching Little words, but the meaning's thin I'm somewhere outside my life, babe; I keep scratching But somehow I can't get in So we're slaves To any semblance of touch Lord, we should quit But we love it too much Sedated, we're nursing on a Poison that never stung Our teeth and lungs are lined With the scum of it Somewhere for this, death and guns We are deaf, we are numb Free and young and we Can feel none of it Darlin', don't you Stand there watching, won't you Come and save me from it? Darlin', don't you Join in, you're supposed to Drag me away from it... Any way To distract and sedate Adding shadows To the walls of the cave You and I, nursing on a Poison that never stung Our teeth and lungs are lined With the scum of it Somewhere for this, death and guns We are deaf, we are numb Free and young and we Can feel none of it Sedated, we're nursing on a Poison that never stung Our teeth and lungs are lined With the scum of it Somewhere for this, death and guns We are deaf, we are numb Free and young and we Can feel none of it
