Hozier - Sedated (with right lyrics)
Just a little rush babe
To feel dizzy, to derail the mind of me.
Just a little hush babe,
My veins are busy but, my heart's in atrophy,
Anyway to distract and sedate,
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave.
You and I, nursing on a poison that never stung,
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it.
Somewhere for this, death and guns
We are deaf, we are numb,
Free and young and we can feel none of it.
Something isn't right babe,
I keep catching little words but the meaning's thin,
I'm somewhere outside my life babe,
I keep scratching but somehow I can't get in.
So we're slaves to any semblance of touch,
Lord we should quit, but we love it too much.
Sedated we're nursing on a poison that never stung,
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it.
Somewhere for this, death and guns
We are deaf, we are numb,
Free and young and we can feel none of it.
Darling, don't you stand there watching, won't you
Come and save me from it?
Darling, don't you, join in - you're supposed to
Drag me away from it.
Anyway to distract and sedate,
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave.
You and I nursing on a poison that never stung,
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it.
Somewhere for this, death and guns
We are deaf, we are numb,
Free and young and we can feel none of it.
Sedated we're nursing on a poison that never stung,
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it.
Somewhere for this, death and guns
We are deaf, we are numb,
Free and young and we can feel none of it.
