This is insulation for the night cold
A cigarette and a drink to lacquer over bones
You either kindle the blood or shiver yourself warm
And the precipice of joyous madness calls in me
Aren抰 we ecstatic as we dance along it?
Blunting the time-sharpened edge of neuroses
Nullification, vivification
Tantamount powers at a stalemate in me
Aren抰 we ecstatic as we all dance along it?
Our wet precipice
(Pour a drink and take a seat beside me)
To each their own perspective, each their own vice
And I抳e made up my mind
Pour up a drink, take a seat with me
And we抣l flood out everything
You need someone, and I give a fuck
So let抯 give those demons wings
(Let's, let's, let's, let's!)
Bwah!
And regardless of the way that the pendulum swings
I抳e come to realise that it抯 okay to believe
That life is nothing but a vertiginous dream
And that抯 all I抳e ever wanted it to be
Breaking my own heart to feel the love
Like the love of one抯 youth, that makes you jump and run
You either kindle the blood or shiver yourself warm
So bring it back, raise your voice, put your glass to your lips and drink
Aren抰 we ecstatic as we all dance along it?
Our wet precipice
(Pour a drink and take a seat beside me)
To each their own perspective, each their own vice
And I抳e made up my mind
Pour up a drink, take a seat with me
And we抣l flood out everything
You need someone, and I give a fuck
So let抯 give those demons wings
You抮e stronger than addiction
Stronger than even bereavement
My friend I抳e seen it
And our vigils, pickled in whiskey
Are preserved eternally in my enduring memory
Aren抰 we ecstatic as we all dance along it?
Our wet precipice
(Pour a drink and take a seat beside me)
To each their own perspective, each their own vice
And I抳e made up my mind
Pour up a drink, take a seat with me
And we抣l flood out everything
You need someone, and I give a fuck
So let抯 give those demons wings
(Let's, let's, let's, let's!)
Bwah!
