Lyrics
Got a knife across your thumb
You're just scraping scumb
Across the pavement, cracked cement
The black tar, and cigarettes
Your fire burned down
All the rain, you let drown
All the secrets making sound
Poor heart beating neath the floor
As the waking eye sleeps
Through the shadows it creeps
The stink of monsters lurking in the dark
Gotta break check post wreck
Face through the glass and back
The elevator's pushing
But it just don't leave the ground
Saying "Hello."
"Hello," to your favorite ghost
Saying "Hello."
"Hello," to your favorite ghost
And "Goodbye," to your mind
You trip on a smile
Crack your silhouette
Once you stood so proud
Now your crooked spine's bent
Got you scratching at the walls now Honey
Did it blow your mind
At the killin' time
Killin' time
Killin' time...
You trip on the sky
Crack your atmosphere
What seemed so far now
Is oh so near
Got you breathing through a bag now Honey
Did it blow your mind
At the killin' time
Killin' time
Killin' time...
