dry ice Lyrics

Captive seeker

You're on lock and key

But you know your keeper?

World-scape believer

You know there's no escape

But say that you can't stay here

I'm dry, but it feels like I've been in the rain

It's waterproof, this suit I've made

And in my pocket, I feel a knotted green grenade

It's soldered to my brain

It's soldered to my brain

And when it detonates

It creates a liminal space

A place where I won't go

Before I know I'm getting colder

The ice begins to show

My suit is filled with snow

It's better that I freeze time

Before I'm frozen, too

It holds me down

Self-indulgent sacrifice

I can't move

It's all in your head, it's all in your head

It's the beginning of the third day

After the second night in a row

Where I watched first the sun set

And then the sun rise

Without sleep between the two.

The taste of pre-breakfast cigarettes I smoked

On the top of the parking garage next to my dorm

At six in the morning lingers on my tongue

Adding an ashy appeal to the

Dead air in the evacuated building

Confined just as much by my sprained foot

As I was by melodramatic fatalism

I consorted to eating cold canned tuna for my midnight lunch

Which killed my appetite much more effectively

Than any warm, well-cooked meal

Ever had in my comfortable childhood

I'm not the first to get through this

And I won't be the last

So cheers to the lowest lows

Making our highest highs higher

It holds me down

Self-indulgent sacrifice

I can't move

It's all in your head, it's all in your head

It holds me down

Self-indulgent sacrifice

I can't move

It's all in your head, it's all in your head
