know that you'll soon go crazy just like a whittling stick / hit by the coming daylight cut up in a quick succession / a pointed confession really stripped of all your armor / down to your very nature beneath the haze and vapor gaze / you're such a willing stick to beckon that wanting knife / you've been looking for it the right blade all your life / saying "who's gonna cut me down to a size that suits me? / is there a worthy sculptor among all you fine young knives?" / it's enough to make you take your head and put it on a shelf / to cut the heart out of your chest they'll come for that as well / tell me how you do that crazy trick where you walk around asleep / save it for your doctor friend the one who keeps you under lock and key / you'll soon go screaming like bargain basement lunatic who's / not so specialized that they couldn't just replace you / why don't you start crying for all that you've got left here / why don't you stop dying before you go and get it right / now you're selling off the house so you can buy the farm / you cut the heart out of your chest to let the light in through your arm / it's enough to make you take your head and put it in a bag / to cut the teeth out at the pink now there's nothing in the bag / foul weather friend you are so dying an amateur chemist now / king medicine when is it perfect? where is it taking you? / there is no cure only reprieve some fleeting joy posing as balance / nothing is sure so every four hours king medicine / this subject loves you
