Lyrics

[Verse 1] Just a little rush, babe, to feel dizzy To derail the mind of me Just a little hush, babe, my veins are busy But my heart's in atrophy [Pre-Chorus] Any way to distract and sedate Adding shadows to the walls of the cave [Chorus] You and I, nursing on a poison that never stung Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it Somewhere from this, death and guns, we are deaf, we are numb Free and young and we can feel none of it [Verse 2] Somethin' isn't right, babe, I keep catchin' Little words, but the meaning's thin I'm somewhere outside my life, babe, I keep scratchin' But, somehow, I can't get in [Pre-Chorus] So we're slaves to any semblance of touch Lord, we should quit, but we love it too much [Chorus] Sedated, we're nursing on a poison that never stung Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it Somewhere from this, death and guns, we are deaf, we are numb Free and young and we can feel none of it [Bridge] Darlin', don't you stand there watching Won't you come and save me from it? Darlin', don't you join in You're supposed to drag me away from it [Pre-Chorus] Any way to distract and sedate Adding shadows to the walls of the cave [Chorus] You and I, nursing on a poison that never stung Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it Somewhere from this, death and guns, we are deaf, we are numb Free and young and we can feel none of it Sedated, we're nursing on a poison that never stung Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it Somewhere from this, death and guns, we are deaf, we are numb Free and young and we can feel none of it
