Envy's Burden

V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1] Envy came first Black coat, sharp grin Saw anxiety shake Saw the room cave in Pain was already waiting At the edge of the bed Cold hands on the rail Like a lie left unread [Pre-Chorus] And she looked so small In the blinking light Barely holding on Barely out of sight [Chorus] Envy is dragging anxiety to the ICU (Envy is dragging anxiety to the ICU) anxiety is so weak and then pain (then pain) envy had to carry her there [Verse 2] The hallway smelled like rust Like bad news in the throat Envy kept her upright With a grip like a vote Pain kept asking questions Through the tubes and the fog Anxiety couldn't answer Just a thin little nod [Pre-Chorus] And the hours fell Like coins on tile Everybody knew This might take a while [Chorus] Envy is dragging anxiety to the ICU (Envy is dragging anxiety to the ICU) anxiety is so weak and then pain (then pain) envy had to carry her there [Bridge] Now the floor's too bright Now the pulse runs thin Envy at the doorway Letting nothing in Pain on the gurney Anxiety in tow Three names in the dark And nowhere left to go [Chorus] Envy is dragging anxiety to the ICU (Envy is dragging anxiety to the ICU) anxiety is so weak and then pain (then pain) envy had to carry her there
