"Adrenaline And Heresy" lyrics

"Adrenaline And Heresy"

Facing a crossroads we've come to
Weighted with sinking thoughts of heresy
It's been slow
A good show just the same
Been hanging on so long
Hanging on for so long

Out of your arms into the absence pit
No collection of words can describe it
Can describe it

A concrete conscience here is worth nil
Placebo pill full of bitter comfort
Bitter comfort

Been watching, looking for (a) magic wand
Been looking for providence
And watching for (a) sign
If time will show
The reason for spreading these words
That ask for no sentence
The absence of crime

She said I still love you
I don't know if I want to spend the rest of my time with you
The rest of my life with you
