We got plenty of sugar to tear up our insides
Can you taste the fluoride? Feel it crystallize?
So I don’t try because im convinced I need it
Im gonna die alone in our apartment
And you’ll freak out when you see it
The mattress on the floor, my body swept up with the summer
It’s all I was good for
Time moves from left to right I keep it on the inside
Time moves from left to right I keep death on my left side
And I try to keep myself alive
For now I'll drink some water hope I survive

We painted the whole thing white it took one day and three nights
To cover the colors of our former lives
We tried it, we outgrew that place
Now we’re stuck inside it
So I close my eyes and navigate the world within
I’ll survive, be more clever than I’ve ever been, forever
Guess you could say its my fault call it what you want
I don’t think I could live like you, never wrong
Ive been having dreams where I watch you leave from that one bedroom apartment completely empty
And all that’s left is me with two sets of keys
So I open my eyes and watch your body fade back in
I survived though I feel older than ive ever been
So much wasted time worrying and worrying
When we die we’ll remember everything, forever

I could crawl back under your skin if I try hard enough
that could make a good place to live take all your broken parts and build them up
tighten tightly loose ends in knots til you're convinced I'm done
then it will surface like it always does
to spread a sickness through you're blood
Cluttered corners dirty gutters spill
clean it up return to filth
making sense of innocence bloody hands belong to me and all my friends and everyone I know
bastardize the world let the myth glow
In day dreams too much time is spent I'm taking time to make sure they're made up

Blessing or a curse? I’m starting to believe it’s both
How many more times can I hang around all smoked out measuring my worth?
It gets worse, caught in a shrinking universe
High on the moon again you float around so blown out com back to earth
And it’s so crazy that I find it so easy to lie when I do the wrong thing
It’s not a problem now until someone finds out till someone calls you out

So much time thinking about my head and the picture you painted in it
Nothing's changed
No more time to drift around in a trance no money, out
Nothing's changed
And slowly I notice I live in a sea of never ending but never connecting events, it's relentless but I'm relentlessly a mess
Static mind and static mouth cut corners corner me now
Nothing's changed
And sometimes I wish for a dream I softly sink into and slowly begin to mistake for the real thing and I never...

You buttoned up your winter coat this winter’s too cold
It takes hold of the twin bed you grew up in
You’re living under fluorescent lights bathe yourself in poison nightly
To soften that thick skin for the weekend
And there’s someone you lie to to protect
They’re sleeping at the edge of your skull
But you’re so dull
They think it comes without warning
The air is thick and you’re fainting
You’ll get off at the next station
You’ll call out sick this morning
And go back to bed stoned but keep the light on
don’t answer the phone sleep off the train ride
You had to know this was coming you felt it in your stomach
You have the chance to control it. Don’t blow it.

We’ve got an internal clock
with gears we wind them all up we get wound up sometimes
At night, unknown, silence
Off white, alone, sirens
It’s that simple, it’s so easy
It’s that simple
At a glance through stained glass the world has color
Secrets surface and burst like a buble
Converse cross words, the mind is a puzzle and im awful
I’m finding clues of you in the living room
It’s that simple, it’s not easy
It’s that simple

I sink a drink late in the day
somewhere between work and the train
at night I take my shirt off in the mirror
see my concave rib cage, feel my cold exterior
So put me together
and hold me in place
until I wake up and feel shame
(I feel it)
Because I take that chance whenever I want
nobody knows the secret things I do... but you
and one's not enough, two hits the spot, three; fall apart
So put me together and hold me in place
until I wake up, feel the pain
please put me together and hold me in place
until I wake up and feel shame
I feel it today

I’m standing by while the house plants inside die
I’m wilting too, there’s no exception to the rule
So ill call tomorrow, I'm on borrow blues
How do you mediate your bitter life through chemistry
Cornered in chemistry
You’re feeling old, mind controlled and stoned
I can see them, my bad habits, I can’t stand, I’m too tired

I don’t mind if it makes me late to work, I'll wait
I don’t have to step on the train, I’ll stay
On the platform it’s kicking in again my body’s floating I am nothing
And I promise I won’t stay this way, completely sublimated on the platform
Tonight I'll save my breath these same old lines are boring you guys to death
How many do you have left? It’s time for bed
The mattress on the floor, it’s sinking in again, my bodies floating I am nothing
And I promise I won’t stay this way completely sublimated
Tonight I'll save my breath these same white lies, I'm boring myself to death

Black Numbers is label that we have a lot in common with sonically—hell, we even share a band or two. We just "get" them in a way that we don't get a lot of labels.
