Analgaesia

from The Worried Well by Linebacker Dirge

/

lyrics

Happy birthday Human;
I hope you didn't get your hopes up too high,
For time is a descent.
Where each New Year gives rise to,
Progressive subjugation of the ego,
And this surge of analgaesia,
Because we fall to this delusion,
That feeling through the sorrow makes you stronger,
Than others who don’t,
But really it’s like violence;
The more you see the less you feel,
And someday we won’t feel a thing.

And the romantic in me knows that’s the objective;
That we belong.
But the reality scares the living shit out of me,
Tell me I’m wrong.

And You won't feel,
Half as much ,
As You did last year
No, You won't feel,
Half as much,
As You did last year

And it is all your fault
It is all your fault
It is all your fault
It is…

The way that you lie to yourself in the mirror,
The way that you dull it with bottom-shelf liquor,
The way that you wear it; some limp standard-bearer,
The way that you kill yourself daily inside to live.

So celebrate your old friends,
For every day they remain,
And celebrate your weak love,
For every day it remains,
And celebrate your short life,
For every day it remains,
And rejuvenate your dust heart,
At all costs, its function is everything.
