I'm a great oasis

Yeah I'm a mirage

I'm a beam of old light from a vanquished star and I'll only guide you into the dark

I'm a parasite with a tapeworm

Yeah I got a bulletproof vest

Knowing my bad luck I ain't ever gonna die so the good will never get any rest

Come bail me out of the state I'm in

The drinks I've had are no match for the truth

The crowd down here put it's teeth in us

But the cure's more dangerous than the venom is

So we leave it in

And we do those things that make us forget that we're dying here

But we're dying here

So love your blood while you can

Let it warm your freezing hands

I'm a dog-less master

Yeah I'm a master-less dog

When the whip and the tether are put aside forever

I'm an ox that wanders into the swap

I'm a rattlesnake across a braided rope

I'm the demon on your side of the chalk

If I caught them girls who started them fires

They'll track me down in the fog

Come bail me out of the state I'm in

The drinks I've had are no match for the truth

The crowd down here put it's teeth in us

But the cure's more dangerous than the venom is

So we leave it in

And we do those things that make us forget that we're dying here

But we're dying here

So love your blood while you can

Let it warm your freezing hands

You put a hex me women

You're a thinner, you're a thinner

Yeah and these are nuclear winters

Atomic black winters

I kept the fire alive because

I'm a sinner, I'm a sinner

Come here and let me boil your blood

I'm a train as long as the track

I am concurrently outbound and just now getting back

They strung me up by a rope as tall as the trees

Though I land my two feet I still sway in the breeze
