I Can Feel A Hot OneI could feel a hot one taking me downFor a moment, I could feel the force Veiny to the point of tears And you were holding on to make a point What's the point? I'm but a clean man, stable and alone man Make it so I won't have to try The faces always stay the same So I face the fact that I'm just fine I said that I'm just fine I remember, head down, After you had found out Manna is a hell of a drug I need a little more, I think Because enough is never quite enough What's enough? I took it like a grown man crying on the pavement Hoping you would show your face But I haven't heard a thing you've said In at least a couple hundred days What'd you say? I was in the front seat, shaking it out And I was asking if you felt alright I never want to hear the truth I want to hear "Your voice is sounding fine" My voice is sounding fine I could feel my heartbeat taking me down For the moment I would sleep alright I'm veiny with a selfish fear To keep me up another restless night Another restless night Your blood was dry, it was sober The feeling of audible cracks And I could tell it was over From the curtains that hung from your neck And I realized it then, you were perfect With my teeth ripping out of my head And it looked like a painting I once knew Back when my thoughts were not a tire leak intact So I prayed for what I thought were angels Ended up being ambulances And the Lord showed me dreams of my daughter She was crying inside your stomach And I felt love again |
