Global Overdose - Cheating Death

Death is inside my body
He tries to come out in various ways
I'm just trying to contain myself
Keep calm, keep relaxed, stay cool
Get to the heart of the matter
What's at stake is words left unsaid
Which in the face of life and death
Is the worst crime
At my wit's end (I'll never stop)
Running from (my fucking thoughts)
Craving drugs (and mindless sex)
I get my fix (onto the next)
Death ties himself to our past
Showing himself as ancestors
Showing himself as ghosts
And as living relatives
He reminds me of the lineage
That I will return to
As he shows me visions
And appears to me in dreams
At my wit's end (I'll never stop)
Running from (my fucking thoughts)
Craving drugs (and mindless sex)
I get my fix (onto the next)
Death is waiting inside us all
Crouching behind parts of ourselves we've forgotten
Looking for a chance to make himself known
To remind us of his presence in us all
At my wit's end (I'll never stop)
Running from (my fucking thoughts)
Craving drugs (and mindless sex)
I get my fix (onto the next)
