Lab Animals - Decelerate

Haven't been to church since 2006
But tonight by palms are pressed into a crucifix
It's the mid-night pulse of the cardiac
It's like line between nocturnal and insomniac

I need a time out
I'm running at full steam
This isn't nonchalant
I think it's eating me
I wanna black out
I'd take a fever dream
I just want anything at all

Whispers in a voice my own
It says I'm nothing but a stepping stone
And if I don't forecast the perfect weather
They'll all move on to someone better

I gotta keep smoking this

Help me get my head on straight
Help me to decelerate
I'm not sure I can make it on my own

Pulling every thread 'til I come undone
I'm thinking this is probably gunna be the fatal one
I know I say it every time but it's hard to see
It's the line between illusion and mortality

I need a time out
I'm running at full steam
This isn't nonchalant
I think it's eating me
I wanna black out
I'd take a fever dream
I just want anything at all

Help me get my head on straight
Help me to decelerate
I'm not sure I can make it on my own
Help me get my head all right
Stuck between the fight or flight
I'm not sure I can make it on my own

Good evening from my cranium
My arm is feeling numb
My clock ticks through the breastbone and
Deep inside I feel my race is run
I count the respirations
I lose patience
What have I become
I play my favorite song
It's not a fix but
It is an improvement

Help me get my head on straight
Help me to decelerate
I'm not sure I can make it on my own
Help me get my head all right
Stuck between the fight or flight
I'm not sure I can make it on my own
