Give It to Me Heavy

[Verse 1] The pulse is just a clock ticking in the wrist A hollow rhythm persists without a reason I walk through the morning in a heavy mist The soul has declared a quiet act of treason My skin is a map leading to nowhere fast The warmth has evaporated from the marrow A shadow is the only thing that’s built to last The path ahead is getting sharp and narrow [Verse 2] I watch my hands reaching for the silver plate They operate on signals sent from cold machines There is no love left and there is no hate Just the grinding gear of the ancient genes Desire is a ghost rattling at the bone A phantom limb that aches for something real I am a king sitting on a plastic throne Forgetting how a human used to feel [Pre-Chorus] My nerves are wires humming in the dark Searching for a fire that can leave a mark The void is wide and it is craving weight A sudden pressure to decide my fate [Chorus] Give it to me heavy let the gravity take hold I am tired of the safety and the stories told Tell me how you want me in the raw and light Break the disconnection in the middle of the night Hunger is the anchor dragging through the sea I need a violent kind of mercy to set me free Take the requirements and throw them in the flame I am calling out a prayer that has no name [Verse 3] The heart is a room where the lights went out A vacant chamber where the air is thin I am wandering the hallways full of doubt Looking for a way to let the fever in I am more than just a mouth that needs to feed More than just a vessel for the blood to flow There is a fundamental and a primal greed For a spark to make the frozen landscape glow [Pre-Chorus] My nerves are wires humming in the dark Searching for a fire that can leave a mark The void is wide and it is craving weight A sudden pressure to decide my fate [Final Chorus] Give it to me heavy let the gravity take hold I am tired of the safety and the stories told Tell me how you want me in the raw and light Break the disconnection in the middle of the night Hunger is the anchor dragging through the sea I need a violent kind of mercy to set me free Take the requirements and throw them in the flame I am calling out a prayer that has no name
