lyrics

I used to be an archeologist
In places like these
I used to dig my shovel down deep
Towards the land of the unredeemed

I used to be curious
About what could be unearthed
What shadows were hiding from me
Down here in the underworld

But you’ve only got three choices once you find yourself in hell
You can call it a work of art
Say you painted it yourself
You can call upon a mystic, whatever good book’s on your shelf
Or you can lie with the flames
Let the smoke surround your brain
Til you can’t ignore the pain anymore and melt

I have been graffiti
Just waiting for myself to dry
Yeah and I’ve met jesus right there in the light of a junky’s eye
And I’ve been forgiven
Tried meditation and ketamine
Yeah, I’ll try anything once
To feel something dissolve in me

But you’ve only got three choices once you find yourself in hell
You can call it a work of art
Say you painted it yourself
You can call upon a mystic, whatever good book’s on your shelf
Or you can lie with the flames
Let the smoke surround your brain
Til you can’t ignore the pain anymore and melt

This world’s been holding on to an airplane oxygen mask
Lately it feels like every breath she takes could be her last

Does it hurt you to bear witness?
It sure as hell hurts me
Watching the shame inside ourselves
Play back to us on TV
