Remedy

Lyrics for Remedy

I need a remedy of diesel and dust Something I can taste with the things I can trust Another high, more potent than lust Eating and repeating like the working of rust and time I woke to the sound and the rhythm of rain Dancing down on the windowpane Comatose, eyes half-closed Arms wrapped up with the wounds all sewn I'm froze from head to toe Clenched the jaw, then felt my body roll over slow I must live to know Healing takes some time So no, no regrets, no looking back on sinking ships So I'll strip the gauze for a rational self-analysis I'm down, cut and bound Counting scars, counting blessings loud, so loud I must live to know that time alone is always healing No regrets or falling fits I'll strip the gauze and bleed it As long as there's a bleeding
