Smoke puffs are white and piling This head feels like an island I am my own asylum Their stares are beady but I don't mind Let 'em take their time 'Cause there ain't no new light to shed, no, no Pandemonium calms me down like an ocean, oh (an ocean, oh) And I'm kissing pillow lips, drunk off saccharine potions, oh And nothing really matters 'Cause everybody here is dying Dying out in slow motion And everybody here is lying, lying Silently detonating emotions Read the spaces between the lines Mind your own business while I grow mine No it's never personal Maybe that's the problem We loosen up every rung on the ladder Serve up a smile on a silver platter No one needs a pillar, just a painkiller or two 'Cause everybody here is dying Dying out in slow motion And everybody here is lying, lying Silently detonating emotions We're dying in the dark It's written there in the stars You're understood by so little and loved only from afar And counting blessings is hard I don't quite know where to start The gold is new, but the gray Well that's just state of the art And bottoms up to skeletons all bottled up Always going when the going gets too tough, oh 'Cause everybody here is dying Dying out in slow motion And everybody here is lying, lying Silently detonating emotions 'Cause everybody here is dying Dying out in slow motion And everybody here is lying, lying Silently detonating emotions 'Cause everybody here is dying
