Bloomer - The Antidote (Frostheart Mix)

V5.5

Basement air in my lungs again wall paint, old wires, late-hour spin I've worn my way into a borrowed skin now the room don't fit what I live in --- Stock-still stare at the floor vent grate mind run hot but the hands move late Got a bad habit feedin' that same old ache turn a small bad thought to a freight train weight I took all the signs, put 'em out of frame let the same trap talk in a different name Now I pace that box like a flipped fuse tryin' not to fold when feels get confused --- I can feel it climbin' through the plaster little by little then all at once faster If I keep drinkin' from the same cracked cup tell me what in me is left upright --- I need the antidote something clean enough to cut through smoke Give me one clear line, one way back home I need the antidote When the weight kicks in and the walls get close when my own head turns into a place unknown I need the antidote --- Down and out, I'm out when I'm down and out Down and out, I'm out when I'm down and out --- Ran my nerve to the edge, then I played it off joked through the damage, coughed through the cost Whole lotta heat in a cold locked room whole lotta noise when the brain goes numb I been cuttin' corners with a bent-up blade tryin' to patch bad days with a stage-name brave But the mirror get rude when the hour gets thin shows the shape I made and the state I'm in --- See the stain spread out through the pattern see me act fine while the whole thing shatters If I keep pourin' into what won't hold tell me what in me makes it through --- I need the antidote something clean enough to cut through smoke Give me one clear line, one way back home I need the antidote When the weight kicks in and the walls get close when my own head turns into a place unknown I need the antidote --- I know that road, I know that taste same hard circle, same worn shape No saint hands comin' through that door still I want one shot at somethin' more So if the cure got teeth, let it bite if it burns going in, let it set me right --- I need the antidote something clean enough to cut through smoke Give me one clear line, one way back home I need the antidote Down and out, I'm out when I'm down and out but I still reach when the light runs low I need the antidote --- Down and out, I'm out when I'm down and out I need the antidote
