[Verse 1]
Nights are longer, days are shorter
Time gets longer, patience shorter
I just wander pacing forward
Like a monster, stay De Goya
Dead from the start, mark of the beast
Heart that I eat, armed to the teeth
An intellect, sharp, bleak
Indifferent, war, peace
Food for thought they force-feed
That bla bla bla of a blasé god
I got a suicide that's forming
A warning for a deadly price
I know I'm not the steady type, I'm lost in heady highs
I'm an artist, man, I'm drawn to sketchy types
Crabs in a bucket that I'll probably kick if I don't watch ‘em
Hashtag my blood but there's no audience for psychodrama
Look what the tiger brought in, d**h, d**h by dishonor
Ultraviolet on it, show me where they hide the bodies
Inside the audio I probably own a few examples
Tooth enamel planted in the hand that fed a losing battle
Soon Seattle's gloomy atmosphere
Can steer me to the shadows
Booze tobacco, moody adults
All the blessings they throw at you
[Hook]
Long live the new flesh
Molly hits, group-s**
Long live the new flesh
Klonopin, booze, X
Long live the new flesh
Audience-approved d**h
Long live the new flesh
[Verse 2]
A blind stupor prying at the sutures
I set fire to their dry sense of humor
They're alive but they'll die in the future
People I remove from my side like a tumor
They didn't notice me when I acted balanced
They didn't notice when my dying was an art
They didn't notice me when I planted flowers
But I bet they'd notice with a knife inside their hearts
If I stab deep, add ‘em to the tally
Toe-tag ‘em, bag ‘em & can ‘em up for the trash-heap
And that's some fitting title usage if you ask me
I hope they get diseases from the music that's so catchy
There must be something in the water, right?
Root of all evil, power of the dollar, right?
Two can keep a secret if one of ‘em is slaughtered, right?
f**, marry, k** & they still don't get the order right
Right? You see I write with my right hand
Right now, write down, rights of a righthand man
Who was left on a left-hand path
So I'm Plath with the deadpan that
Means I'm Colossus in my head
Doing aerials I'm Ariel & falling to my d**h
Stomping over cities that their god must have neglected
Instead left an admonishment of long live the flesh
d**h to the Videodrome & that's an order not request
So conform or get the wreck, uh
A Klonipin & a cardiac arrest
Left an overworked artifact, a heart attack is next, uh
So I don't lollygag my steps
There's no tardy pa** in hell, there's no sorry that can fix
From over-sleeper to insomniac & stressed
I'm a somnambulist walking right into the hands of them
