Wartime Drug Trials Lyrics

You tried to tell me

All the things you were seeing

Going on about

Objects too big to perceive

First in your dreams

Symbols and signs and their meanings

Then in the papers, what's coming later

Now here we are just pointing

Do you stay up late at night putting off the next day?

Do you grip your insides so you'll feel okay?

There's a clinical trial not yet approved

What's done is done

But there's more to do, do, do, oo oo oo

I swallow air like water

I hold it in my cheeks

I move it all around

And pass it in between my teeth

I try to spit it back at you

I want to see it in your face

But then I'd be all out of breath

Because I gave it all away

Have you heard the news?

There's gonna be a war

Better pick a side

Barricade your door

They took our water

And burned our food

What's done is done

But there's more to do, do, do, oo oo oo

Can you give me comfort?

Can you help me sleep?

Can you slow my heart down?

Are you breathing deep?

Will we have enough?

Will we make it through?

What's done is done

But there's more to do, do, do, oo oo oo
