Mercy Cage - Needle Marks (and Scars) lyrics
Your rating:
It's the same old scene this year Checking in for minor repairs Angel's gone away She pushed it an inch too far I'll admit I like the way you wear your marks and scars... She screams like 1973, 'I know' 'I need it' Junk makes such beautiful debris Stay sane, at least you'll leave a good looking corpse Trauma claws and pretty stains All in search of brighter pain Many voices whisper, 'I will end you' Still haunted by the date Nothing left to separate Keep breathing Inhale, exhale Oh, what possesses you to try and trip this vein? And one more time I disbelieve Choke down the pills that Chrissi gave me and try not to think of this Yet I wonder what possesses you to try and trip the vein? It scars and scars and scars and scars Another chapter on the road to chemical divinity I know why need it Three steps to co-dependency I think you're beautiful no matter what the needle marks say Version 2.0, open up the wound and let it flow It rains down It's something that she could never see Raise the divine hand of withdrawal It's just addiction after all Depress the trigger on a gun called apathy And I wonder what possesses you to try and trip this vein? It scars and scars and scars and scars Don't want to be late for the wake this time It's a long drive in ever decreasing circles I'll admit I lied to you I'll admit I used you up inside To feed my insecurities Goodbye...
