Whispers of Calm

Quick don't make a sound step up to the table Take these drugs and feel alive again Everything you've ever wished for is just a pill away Just don't let your feelings sway The premonition is lost behind his eyes Lay closer and let things come to life The thrill has left a sliver of hope And these livid dreams are helping you cope Your bedside manner is lacking in a wasted time once lost The profane and profound impersonate the rich and the loud In a time where we all resist the hand that feeds The breath of life blows out the candle of death So take heed and don't make a sound Creep through the darkness to search for the light all around A ragged whisper sends a chill down your spine Struggle to keep your balance she says you're all mine Touch the water and let it cleanse your drunken soul Let's make believe we're all something more You'll be dead by morning's end You'll be dead by tomorrow morn Sing to the dead for us and grant them peace Let them know that heavens been released
