about

Off of the 2013 EP "The Drugs" originally released under the stage name Noir.

lyrics

Would you think that I was still beautiful if I told you I was a liar
and that I have one foot out the door and one foot in the funeral pyre?
Or that all that I have been through has made me the product of misdirection
and that all I’ll ever be for you is another missed connection?
Does it make you feel insecure when I show you my true weakness
or when you’re an audience to the despair that facilitates my neuroses?
Or because I’ve got a bone to pick with my closet full of skeletons
because all they do is mix clever words with shots of arrogance?
Would you still think I was intelligent when I get caught up in my words
while I try to explain the condition of man is to gather into a herd?
Or will you come to the conclusion that I’m not really perfect
but you still think that this struggle with me is completely worth it?
Would you believe me if I told you that god was really dead
And that all that’s left is this idea engrained inside of our heads?
And that the only thing we’re praying to before we go to sleep at night
Is a universe full of stars and sky full of fireflies?

Come to me you precious thing
Bleed a dream, while you drink for me
Come to me you ferocious being
Sleep easy, while I drink for three
Come to me you sedated thing
Feed this feeling while you bleed for me
Come to me you fragile being
Thirst for me while I die for everything

Would you still think that I was strong if I just broke down and cried
cuz in the past 21 years of my life this is the first time that I’ve felt alive?
Or what if I told you that a sad state of affairs would be the pinnacle of this blight
but that even the darkest of nights can hide a tiny figment of sunlight?
Would you trust me if I told you that I don’t feel like this that often
and that my approach to things like this is to proceed with extreme caution?
Or that feelings like this for me aren’t really out of the ordinary
But the results of our conclusions depend entirely on the arbitrary?
Does it trip you out when I talk so nonchalantly about my past
And about everything in this world that made me exactly the way I am?
Or does it provoke a sense of wonder or questions in your head
As to how I’ve made it this far in the world with only a pen and paper to fight off the dread?
Would you still want to be around me if I hadn’t dug myself out of this mess
Or are you still surprised to find that after all of this I am still a wreck?
And that maybe things really haven’t changed that much for me
Or maybe this is just who I am really supposed to be?

Come to me you precious thing
Bleed a dream, while you drink for me
Come to me you ferocious being
Sleep easy, while I drink for three
Come to me you sedated thing
Feed this feeling while you bleed for me
Come to me you fragile being
Thirst for me while I die for everything
