Intoxicated from hindsight I'm going to get you on the flipside You'd be embarrased if you ever knew Just how much sleep I lost over you World's of tears the clearest blue Are clouded red and tested true With my mind's afterburners on As velvet night turns to grey dawn Your face pours in as the floodgates break To bury it all: you my great mistake
My throat in knots drips damage done I choked and swallowed, I killed the fun A king in vein I hide the pain I turn it up and ride the gain This is my twisted destiny To be forever a victim of your tragedy I dropped my guard I missed my mark I was lost in your dark eyes from the start
If I had swung at you and missed Just this once there'd be some ignorance in this bliss As I stand over looking down The edges blurry levels drown
You'd jump but theres no net It doesn't matter dont you fret You'll finally start to feel your weight In the cushioned landing, soft in faith
I've killed myself I've been born again With razor fangs for thses bitter men Filled with rancor for my fate I burn my soul with these rags of hate As I fall down on these bloody knees Perception shattered, now i see Intoxicated in hindsight, I'm going to get you on the flipside!
