lyrics

Honey Gold and Gina Valentina,
stir ‘em with your coke spoon,
it makes the taste sweeter when you come
through that door, electroshock therapy,
Le Petit Mort.
The Little Death from which you were created
is now what’s got you feeling sedated
and depleted when just a moment before
it was everything you needed,
to release it.
Oh, and then it’s gone…
until it just reforms again.

You know what it’s like,
how it just kind of tires you out.
How it just kind of puts that fire out.
I don’t even really need to tell you,
when that external stimuli fades.

Call me Ishmael when I inhale, set sail,
with my harpoon trained on that white whale.
Pulled into my lungs and now I’m zonin’.
Bring the onrush of dopamine and serotonin.
The chemical reaction.
An artificial link for an inch of satisfaction.
Oh baby, you’ve unlocked your mind.
But you know it’s gonna ask a little more
from you next time.

Dionysus, even words of praise
fall from your vine and make sleep for days.
The lotus eater lost in space.
What if I just close my eyes
and never wake?
