Shallow Water Blackout

Neuron flash in fifty watts pinpointing to the streetlight limbo
Told me it was chemistry why I behave like this
Why I move in misdirected impulse
And speak in scrambled clusters of white noise
Traction is not a term of endearment
Death is an experiment best conducted face down
Vertigo may not include spinning, but it ought to

I am languid in the puddle
Face full of concrete cellophane
Don't say a single fucking word
Unless you speak with a drowning tongue
I'm not listening, I'm not focusing
My eyes have sunk and set and I'm invincible
I'm waterproof

Someone said that heaven is just coincidental collisions of electrons
This is not the time for touching me

I am a conduit changing colors, frantic humming televisions
Conducting city spasms, shorting voltage like a fuse
Come on
Yeah

The elevating vibrations of hysteria
Amplified by the armor of the tarn
Flashing lights paint veins across the sky
And everyone along the roadside just wants to see a saint

The serenity of sirens
The allure of the femme fatale
Her defibrillator hands can't stop me now
I feel quite alright
