...leads to a lifetime on mercury

Blacking out on the curb again
Silver rings the drain

For years
I've pushed all aside
To sink further in mercury

Beneath a convex glass
Lies my bitter past
Embrace its hold

And I pity not a fuckin' one
Who choose contempt

I felt the break
Between the earth & sky
Rest your head
I've found my solace here

I felt it now
Unplug me from my machine
Let me run
I need to breathe on my own

I've played the part
Of walking dead amongst them all
And I'll never see the light through silver
