"M1SERY_SYNDROME" lyrics

Eyes open
Blinding lights, my limbs are frozen
The sirens
Echo through the city streets tonight

They're micro-dosing empathy
To get me through the surgery
They're harvesting my arteries
You've taken every part of me

Doctor, help me, tell me, am I breathing?
I can't tell if I'm awake or dreaming
On the stretcher (and I slip away)
Is it better (if I drift away?)
Doctor, help me, tell me, am I breathing?
(Sometimes, it's hard to tell)

Take, take the love right from my lungs
They can't operate, need to amputate
So wait, wait and watch me start to bleed
You played your part and I paid the price

Micro-dosing empathy
To get me through the surgery
They're harvesting my arteries
You've taken every part of me

Doctor, help me, tell me, am I breathing?
I can't tell if I'm awake or dreaming
On the stretcher (and I slip away)
Is it better (if I drift away?)
Doctor, help me, tell me, am I breathing?
(Sometimes, it's hard to tell)

Well, you look like love and you taste like pain
And you're all I want but it's not the same
When the heartbeat fades, I'll be on the table so
Lacerate my chest
