lyrics

cut the thread at the frayed end
drink from the river be born again
and though i try i can't remember what i said
or how i came to be here

i don't want to die
i just want to sleep for a thousand nights more
and we are asleep in the back of my car
but i'm sure i'll wake by tomorrow

My mind has been softened
poison sold as medicine
the untimely death of everything
the sedative of love

i can't feel
anything now
i felt too much once and it all leaked out
and i wish i could cry
but i got nothing to cry about

time is creeping up on me
i can't be afraid
to sing it loud be it the truth or a lie
i can't be afraid to die

we might all die before day ends
so tell everybody you know that you love them
i just hope i live to know another morning
