Strange Times Deca

[Verse 1]
Strange times, I'm striving to better myself
Sick of putting worldly pleasure ahead of my health
Mental land, physical glow pitiful sight
Wretched, from the poison ingested
The middle of the night awaken in a cold sweat
Bottom feeder-esq never shed my old flesh
No regrets though I finally learn to let go
I've dished out and been hit with direct blows
Eyes swoll shut, broken blood vessels
Threshhold for pain high, dark secrets kept low
On the low, deep dark tucked away forever
Along the road my weak heart struck the way to pleasure
Struck gold but it wasn't enough to make it better
Midas curse, sun and moon collided with earth
Vex, drug sex rock and roll shit
Gettin' close to the edge I watch my soul slip

[Pre-Chorus]
Snagged it by the ring finger before it fell
The recluse poked his head out the tortoise...

[Chorus]
Shell-shocked due to my natural habitat
Devil's lab rat, who fell victim to his magic act
Hell bent on forcing new life into my old soul
Then buyin' it back from him, I know I stoop so low
Shell-shocked due to my natural habitat
Devil's lab rat, who fell victim to his magic act
Hell bent on forcing new life into my old soul
Then buyin' it back from him, I know I stoop so low
