The layers and blankets that cover your skin Protect you from the world you're within The needle is subject that matters the most When you are down and you're out, out in the cold I don't remember how the town looked before But it was safe to roam freely, love was its core There's plenty like you in this City of Dust One wipe and you're gone or just sit there as rust Had enough, you are ill and God knows it too The well you are drowning in for He knows the truth The harder you get when it's all but decay With your life on string, with nothing to say All that you know and all that you need That hit that will blow you right off of your feet Had enough, you are ill and God knows it too The well you are drowning in for He knows the truth
