HANGMAN lyrics
by Arankai
[Intro]
Spent last night watching flies crawl
Hearing TV static down a dark hall
I keep my secrets in a bag, in the back, buried
Razorblade, choke chain, and I'm breathing heavy (Ah)
[Verse 1]
Hail Mary, I have sinned again
I've been trying to cut off all my demons, but we're friends again
Hangman, swinging at the end of my rope
I'm only numb for the moment, 'cause I doubled the dose
Troubled waters sinkin' my boat
Face above the waves, but I can’t flow
I been California dreaming every time my eyes close
Sleep is for the weak, God, I want to sleep for a week though
Drugs in my vеins, I got lead bones
Paradise on thе edge of my vision, I can't get close
I'm addicted to a kind madness, chasing white rabbits
Metal to my temple habit
[Chorus]
And I've been driving all night, just riding on a whiskey high
Cigarettes after sex in my car help to clear my mind
I have so many thoughts, but they get dangerous after dark
Softly haunting like bad dreams and melodies
[Verse 2]
Inside, there's a quiet riot (Hush, hush)
Silence right before the violence (Hush, hush)
Countdown 'til I'm face down lying on the carpet, lights out
Undermedicated, I keep my other side locked up in the basement
b*tch, I bite back, do you really want to see it?
Jekyll when I'm fine, I can't Hyde what's underneath
I'm vicious every time I show my teeth
[Verse 3]
Spent last night watching flies crawl
Hearing TV static down a dark hall
Keep my secrets in a bag, in the back, buried
Razorblade, choke chain, and I'm breathing heavy
[Verse 4]
The only thing louder than my head is my stereo
Swan Songs screaming out the radio
I'm a bottle of Everclear away to dismantle me
It's a Molotov birthday, light the candle and set me free
[Chorus]
And I've been driving all night, just riding on a whiskey high
Cigarettes after sex in my car help to clear my mind
I have so many thoughts but they get dangerous after dark
Softly haunting like bad dreams and melodies, yeah
