The Divine Zero

[Verse 1] Maybe I could swim into your thoughts like your drugs do Paralyze your body, sick and tired of waking up to Burning eyes and cigarettes I'm falling through the couch like a suicide mission tonight My God, here comes the downside Wild eyes of terror pray for sex on the beach While oceans of kerosene will soak into me I'm not meant for this world, I just don't see the point Don't think about it, don't over think about it And life is a joke, but everything's riding on me tonight Been counting the stars and scars How I'm becoming a work of art [Chorus] Desperate times and desperate measures I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile [Verse 2] The whispered words "You'd better hide the bullets" You stayed on the phone and talked to me day and night Trigger my nightmare once again It's fucking loaded in hand And we'll let the fire rage The smoke and the drowning flames My bedroom computer light is the only menace to my new faux wooden blinds [Chorus] Desperate times and desperate measures I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile [Bridge] Now, I only pray when it all goes down I'll be surrounded by all of the ones I've loved and cared about And then burn it down [Verse 3] And life is a joke At least I can love you, naked and tattooed Counting the stars and scars And if the pain is a sound, let's slow it down [Chorus] Desperate times and desperate measures I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile [Bridge] Now, I only pray when it all goes down I'll be surrounded by all of the ones I've loved and cared about And then burn it down [Outro] Your serotonin's gone The kerosene is gone The sunset is gone So hold on Your serotonin's gone The kerosene is gone The sunset is gone It's all gone, all gone, all gone, all gone
