lyrics

I don't want to be on life support
I don't want to live without a thought
Smiling and drugged up with the opium of God

Feeling like I need to be alone
Paranoid, I cut the telephone
And stare at the sorry little wire sticking out

I'm swimming through a million different options at once
But not one of them lets me see the light of day
I thought that I could get by without talking to you
Now my heart wants me to surface to the spray

Silence is a buzzing in my ears
I listen to my agitated fears
And gradually start to wonder if I'm really here

I thought that this would make me feel alive
I'm blurry and I'm scattered and I'm tired
Turned off my headlights now there's nowhere I can drive

I'm swimming through a million different options at once
But not one of them lets me see the light of day
I thought that I could get by without talking to you
Now my heart wants me to surface to the spray
