Exit Everything

This is a warning

A gun-to-the-head thing

This is a sign

A don't-get-out-of-bed thing

The sky was deep

And the wind was hot

And I tried to speak

But I could not

The telephone rang like church bells

Jesus Christ I've gone to hell

A powder burn to the face

To remember you by

A powder burn to the lips

It'll make you cry

A blazing blister kiss

My love, don't you even try

To remember this

Exit everything

Nodding dogs and valium

Let's make this whole world

Spin like a top

And then stop

Exit everything

Here we go again

One more time

Out of the black

And into the ether...

The windows blew out

As you blew in

You wore the smell of success

I wore the taste of sin

With every lie I did you in

Now the siren slowly spins

It'll never last

I backed away from the stars

Because the light cut my skin

Like shards of glass

And the cordite sting

I'm far too late, I'm far too thin

I've lost it all, that's everything

I don't feel a thing

You know you probably heard her

It was the sound of murder

You know, maybe you heard her

This is the sound of murder

Exit everything

Nodding dogs and valium

Let's make this whole world

Spin like a top

And then stop

Exit everything

Exit everything

Torch the throne, kill the king

And teach the whole world to sing

Exit everything
