Chemicals Lyrics

Deep in the seeding

Of doubts empty feeling

A crack in the sidewalk

A hole in the fallout

Upon my retreating

A young girl is weeping

She turns up the pages

Of death through the ages

To curtail the ending

The credits relenting

I don my costume of right

And after the dawning

The light on the awning

I pound my fists into the night

You and I are chemicals honey

Despite who we are

We beat our phantom wings

But we never get far

This feeling in me has to go

The ratchet and clank of a broken down soul

Up through the pictures

Filtered by tinctures

She looks at his features

His eyes full of creatures

If his doom is impending

Her backbone is bending

My ire crescendos

And shatters the windows

And just when the story

The fraudulent story

Is ground to dust in my teeth

I hang from the steeple

A sign to all people

That time and love are just thieves

You and I are chemicals honey

Despite who we are

We beat our phantom wings

But we never get far

This feeling in me has to go

The ratchet and clank of a broken down soul
