Alkaline Trio - Lead Poisoning lyrics

Choking slowly, broken hearted Don't look now, here's what you started I swore I'd be there 'til the end, we're bitter now but better friends I climbed out limbless to the ledge to bask in my last true regret Lay my heavy head here down to sleep And I pray to Abraxas my soul to keep Lay my heavy head here down to dream wake up with this lead poisoning Sobbing softly, lost and hollow This fever dream tough pill to swallow I swore I'd be there 'til the end, you're better off, your bitterness I climbed out lifeless to the edge, I waved goodbye and lept, I... Lay my heavy head here down to sleep And I pray to Abraxas my soul to keep Lay my heavy head here down to dream Awaken to the blood and sweat and screams Woke up here on Monday morning, this old street, on this dark corner Waiting here for what tomorrow brings Silver lake, mercury mining, this mistake, no silver lining Waiting for a bullet train to bring me my lead poisoning My lead poisoning Lay my heavy head here down to sleep And I pray to Abraxas my soul to keep Lay my heavy head here down to dream And wake up with this lead poisoning
