Dark Water Lyrics

Balance is bittersweet when all you know is madness.
Count my blessings. Poke out my eyes.
Privilege magnified & shoved in my face
When I walk through the tunnels where
The invalids lay.

I'm wading in dark water when I should be in bed.
With a head full of magic & a heart full of dread.
My labors of toil. My labors of love.
Streetlight pale. Goddamn the sun.

We're all dangerously close to the bottom.
Anguish & Joy could be slammed shut.
In the wink of an eye. In the inky night.
I'm a nightcrawler & I don't know why.

Balance is bittersweet when all you know is madness.
Count my blessings - Claw out my eyes.
There's no rain to wash the piss stench away
When I walk through the tunnels where the invalids lay.

I'm wading in dark water when I should be in bed.
With a head full of magic & a heart full of dread.
My labors of toil. My labors of lust.
Streetlight pale. Goddamn the sun.

We're all dangerously close to the bottom.
Anguish & Joy could be slammed shut.
In the wink of an eye. In the inky night.
I'm a nightcrawler & I don't know why.
