The Ruthless Hours Lyrics

Losing track of hours

Rolling luscious sleep

Devour me entirely to keep your memory

Blistering the new day sun

Slip into walking feet

Stumble past the door

Feast on decaying meat

The engines passing by

Dead eyes will not care

To help me live or die

All they do is stare

It feels like every room is crowded

I cannot catch my breath

If I stay too long

I know I'll be a threat

Hours too long

Always

Hours too long

Always

Hours too long

Always

I'm rattling my eyes

As you get too close

I need this to wake up

Don't want to stop or overdose

Trap the cobra in a bottle

Swallow it alive

I do it nearly everyday

In order to survive

Treachery and plastic smiles

All go hand in hand

They tell you you'll be fine tomorrow

Without a place to land

Sit still focus in on breathing

Sweep off my frontal lobe

Can't cure these impulses

I need an antidote

Time makes me so nervous

Prying up my nails

Suffocate myself under the pillow

When all else seems to fail

I wish I had my youth again

But all good things must die

I spent it in the behavioral units

Pacing down the line

Hours too long

Always

Hours too long

Always

Hours too long

Always

Hours too long

Always

Hours too long

Always

Hours too long

Always

Hours too long

Always

Hours too long

Always
