Pharmaceuticals

from Fire, Then Rain by The Shape Of The Earth

lyrics

I've got plans for what we're doing,
I've got Pharmaceuticals and drinks,
I don't believe in evolution
I don't believe in anything but guns.
Oh I'll finally feel alive and
I think this gamble is the final one,
But whose to say this is the last time,
As if i was in control at all.

I put the gun back in the holster,
The weather took a silly turn for the worse,
That’s thunder rolling over pastures screaming fury wild
And now everything hurts.
A twitch. A spaz, a fit, and it's beginning;
A twitch a spaz a fit and now it running course,
There's nothing I can do to stop it.
That’s evolution at its best and worst!

----------------------------
Wait it out come on just wait it out
Cut the line and everybody's gonna sink.
I should've known it'd happen in the first place, I should have (known and watched it all running down) watched my own demise running down.
I've got to fight it
Ive got to write it down
Ive got to fight it-
I've got to tell it all
--------------------------

And for a moment it's abiding,
And for a moment I am in the eye-
Life and death rages all around me,
Life and death is craving that I try and defy.

But you know thoughts are everlasting?
even then when I would surely rather die
There's a moment of hallucination,
An eyebrow raised up rather high.



------------------------------
Wait it out come on just wait it out
Cut the line and everybody's gonna sink.
I should've known it'd happen in the first place, I should have (known and watched it all running down) watched my own demise running down.
I've got to fight it
I’ve got to write it down
I’ve got to fight it-
I've got to tell it all
--------------------------

You’re kindly sitting by my bedside.
We'll stay up late and defy our own death.
Maybe tomorrow I can do it
Maybe now I can get out of bed.

But wait everything is shaking,
But wait I am going on back in

This time gravity is flipped and
My legs thrashing all the chaos below

----------------------------
Wait it out come on just wait it out
Cut the line and everybody's gonna sink.
I should've known it'd happen in the first place, I should have (known and watched it all running down) watched my own demise running down.
I've got to fight it
Ive got to write it down
Ive got to fight it-
I've got to tell it all
--------------------------
