The gate should open at my breathI think I take too many
This one's the last for a while
Walked across the oval with the sergeant bride
As the cracks in the parking lot stretched to divide
The snow came on
It was the first in a while
Couldn't tell for sure if it was really real
Like a doctor you're numb to even when he's upon youI wash my hands
Wash my hair, too
You gotta be clean and pretend like you wanna be clean
To pull through in a dark world
In a dark worldIt's cruel to be blatant to a life that you've thrown away
But there's no use for patience with a barrel of snakesI think I take too many
These are the last for a while
Walking 'cross the threshold and he takes my hand
Said he'll promise to like me if I stand in the light
Who's got my bag?
Who's got a bag for me?
Who stands in the corner and pays
With her marrow for her treats?
In a dark world
In a dark worldThe gate should open at my breath
The gate should open when I say goI think I take too many
Walking through the doorway, but I'm halfway deep
A heartache that numbs you even when it coats you
