Dogbite - Cripper

Under pressure

Under control

Feeding the living

With the limbs of the dead

Long before the dawning

Longing for the fall

Hell, we keep the motor humming

I am humming, running dry

Black, on fire, arrows

Aiming in the sky

Searching for a shelter, home

Hiding from each other’s pain

Wake me, take me

Turn around and hate me

I may not be good company

But I can kill your apathy

Near the end of the stay

Near the bottom of the line

We all follow the animal

And escape the pain

Now tell me more about the girl

That I’m supposed to be

Sometimes it seems I’ve had enough

To make me walk away

If this is what you want

Then this is what you want

Who would even bother?

Say, who wouldn’t want it, too?

Love controls with silence

As it does with words

You used to say that I have fire

Now you’re gonna see me burn

Bleeding desire

Beat inside, outside memory

Burning empire

Like a fever turning blood into fire

What I fake

In my head

Alone

Bleeds

Wherever

I go

Now is just

A matter of time

And we are less

Than a moment

Of high tension

Once bitten, twice shy

One is wrong and almost done

One is one plus one plus one

One is one more than just none

Another is just one

Another is just one
