I'm dimed
I'm tapped
I'm drowning
I'm trapped
I'm barely surviving
I'm shivering with sweat
I'm watching the horizon
I'm dreading the sunset
My heart is a hammer
My blood is filled with nails
I am a sinking boat
Salt water fills the sails
My mind's an engine
Throttle opened wide
Floating in the water
Not fighting the riptide
I broke a tooth in half
There's ringing in my ears
I cut my thumb wide open
A nosebleed mixed with tears
This cough is not subsiding
My back's a net of knots
My hair is dull and greying
I'm drowning in my thoughts

It's a 4am in a line of 4ams
I look in both directions
And I can't see an end
I swear I did my best
I tossed and turned all night
But my longs still have some air
And my chest is still drum-tight
Imagine a disaster
Bring it to the world
Imagine all the worst of things
And see them all unfurled
I can feel my teeth crunch and creak
I can hear my lungs cough and wheeze
I can feel my bones split and leak
I can feel my hands grasp and seek
But I love the moon, bright on snow
And I love the rain, clean and close
And I love the trees, tall and deep
And I love the shores, hard and mean
Leading to steel-grey seas
I'm living through the moment
Of howling wind and frost
I guess it's worth escaping
But for now I feel so lost

Mezzanine I'm by myself
The air is loud but that's no help
There's a crowd, they're turned away
1000 miles to care if I stay
I have the ticket
You're on the ride
Just grip the vinyl
Just stay alive
About an hour and I'll be good
Don't cause a ruckus
Just put some nails to wood
The poison tells me
I've done it all
But you won't be a widow
I don't plan to fall

Wormwood got me today
The voices and the poison
Coursing through my veins
Bad thoughts got me today
The tension and the weeping
Haunting my poor brain
Life went and got me today
I hate to be awake
I hate to live in pain
The poison got me today
I'm cracking apart
It's dripping through my veins
Gathering up the pieces
Throwing them away
Grab a set of pliers
Nothing whole can stay
I showed up and I'm already numb
Nothing to do but get it done
Crush the rot and pull
Before I think to run
I can feel it crunch and pop
Shatter in my head
I'm swirling through the fumes
I'm hazy seeing red
I pushed the sweetness out
The bitterness piles high
There's more load out beyond it
Spring is here, it's time to thrive
