Sedated

[Verse 1]
Just a little rush, babe
To feel dizzy
To derail the mind of me
Just a little hush, babe
My veins are busy but my heart's in atrophy

[Pre-Chorus]
Anyway to distract and sedate
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave

[Chorus]
You and I, nursing on a poison that never stung
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
Somewhere for this, death and guns
We are deaf, we are numb
Free and young and we can feel none of it

[Verse 2]
Something isn't right, babe
I keep catching little words but the meaning's thin
I'm somewhere outside my life, babe
I keep scratching but somehow I can't get in

[Pre-Chorus]
So we're slaves to any semblance of touch
Lord we should quit, but we love it too much

[Chorus]
Sedated we're nursing on a poison that never stung
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
Somewhere for this, death and guns
We are deaf, we are numb
Free and young and we can feel none of it

[Bridge]
Darlin', don't you, stand there watching, won't you
Come and save me from it?
Darlin', don't you, join in
You're supposed to
Drag me away from it

[Pre-Chorus]
Anyway to distract and sedate
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave

[Chorus]
You and I, nursing on a poison that never stung
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it
Somewhere for this, death and guns
We are deaf, we are numb
Free and young and we can feel none of it
