Blood Cell Lyrics

What is real?

I cannot tell

Am I locked in a blood cell?

Tense like a bow and arrow

Feel it down in my bone marrow

Some snakebit, just born to suffer

Can't let go, obsessed, compulsive

Here I Witness friction, indecision

Caught in an endless line of fiction

But if I try can I really be different?

Is my cage just waves of prediction, never ending?

Try to move, but am I fixed in this position?

Try to see, but who am I kidding?

I mean

Harlow said he could make any man he want from the roster

But we know that that ain't so

No tabula rasa

Think about your birthrights: your mind and your space

You inadvertently inherited a time and a place

Just as your blood circulates

you author information circulation?

Is that the case?

No choice to choose, can't win, can't lose

Recall the conflict of two Mews, opposing views

And at the moment of resolution

after asking each other brother, What are we doing?

Why are we feuding?

Paths to peace we could be pursuing

Saying let it be a movement, a testament

In fact it's evident,

Details of one's birth really are quite irrelevant

Hate these words for I sense they could be used as a banner

By bigots who do not care to really even understand them

These gadflies in my brain, the strain, it stays bothering

Looking at the Mews like my name was Tim Robinson

Do I even try?

Makes me wanna cry

Honestly, makes me wanna die

But I every day I cast the die

Knowing truth will outlast my confused diatribe

Stress chronic

Barely half mind feels diatonic, not of the key

From dissonance, what could set me free

Short of death or a lobotomy?

Energy I expend I'm electric

Still my course runs diametric

No track-star still jumping these hurdles

Though I know I'm running in circles

Am I real boy, or do strings hold me down?

Burn these wings you know what I found?

We may be driftwood in the sea

Tied together by strings of destiny

When tide and weather get the best of me

Feel like somebody is finessing me

Do I choose what I want, I hate, I love

Given by both below & above

From somewhere up in the skies

Somewhere disguised in my bones

Every face I could have known

What is real? I cannot tell

Am I locked in a blood cell?

Are we the sum of what came before?

Story unfolds written on my core

What then if we continue learning?

We spend dollars to predetermine

Shark fins in the water lurking

Dividends, all that they'd be serving

Cut thin, design that baby's smell

We spin around like carousels

Work in his eyes a blue pastel

Where's it end if then even blood sells?

I'm off the liquor, out my head up on this parking deck

Stance slipping after all all this beer and jameson

I'm off the liquor, out my head up on this parking deck

Did I choose to be here, what you gonna talk about next?

I'm off the liquor, out my head up on this parking deck

Only one thing ever seem to really relieve the stress
