"Contraband" lyrics
(feat. Courtney LaPlante)
They want you dead, they want you finished
They want you signed, sealed and delivered
Sent to the grave, a flame extinguished
Another crooked soul to be relinquished
Repressed, another patient admitted
Depressed, another lie contradicted
Regress, go figure, no fucking answers
Except to save yourself at the expense of another
Contraband won't protect you
When there's a contract on your head (On your head)
So tell me why you're killing all your friends
(Where do you go from the end?)
Contraband won't protect you
Not when the war's inside your head (On your own)
So tell me why you're killing all your friends
Why do you pray for the end?
Ghost, lifeline
Will you come save me?
They want you dead, they want you finished
They want you signed, sealed and delivered
Sent to your grave, the flames extinguished
Another crooked soul to be relinquished, go
You keep telling us to die for something
And yet you fight for nothing
Ghost, lifeline
Getting help from you is a fine line
Ghost, lifeline
You could build a home with all your lies
Contraband won't protect you
When there's a contract on your head (On your head)
So tell me why you're killing all your friends
Contraband won't protect you
Not when the war's inside your head (On your own)
So tell me why you're killing all your friends
Why won't you pray for the end?
Ghost, lifeline, will you come save me?
Pick me, pick me, pick me, pick me
They want you dead (Want you dead)
Pray for the end
They want you signed, sealed and delivered
Sent to the grave, a flame extinguished
Another crooked soul to be relinquished
Repressed, another patient admitted
Depressed, another lie contradicted
Regress, go figure, no fucking answers
Except to save yourself at the expense of another
Contraband won't protect you
When there's a contract on your head (On your head)
So tell me why you're killing all your friends
(Where do you go from the end?)
Contraband won't protect you
Not when the war's inside your head (On your own)
So tell me why you're killing all your friends
Why do you pray for the end?
Ghost, lifeline
Will you come save me?
They want you dead, they want you finished
They want you signed, sealed and delivered
Sent to your grave, the flames extinguished
Another crooked soul to be relinquished, go
You keep telling us to die for something
And yet you fight for nothing
Ghost, lifeline
Getting help from you is a fine line
Ghost, lifeline
You could build a home with all your lies
Contraband won't protect you
When there's a contract on your head (On your head)
So tell me why you're killing all your friends
Contraband won't protect you
Not when the war's inside your head (On your own)
So tell me why you're killing all your friends
Why won't you pray for the end?
Ghost, lifeline, will you come save me?
Pick me, pick me, pick me, pick me
They want you dead (Want you dead)
Pray for the end
