This is the very same dark and dirty world
It swallowed me whole
But I came out alive
Bow my head, collapse, cauterize every synapse
Whisper your Magnificat
But I came out alive
Air heavy as the water, water wicked as wine
And wine blacking out the night
I came out alive
I could not have killed myself even if I tried
With the beating I took, I earned a lot more f*cking life
I came out alive
Eyes in the headlights
No one's got my back
Drop the receiver
Raise the hair on my neck
Step out of the phonebooth
See the mist on my skin
And hear sighs in overdrive
The crack of the pines
Grabbing onto the dirt
It's something to hold
But it can be removed
Watch them all all
The only thing I heard
Was sighs in overdrive
