lyrics

What's that sound in your head?
Did they slip you a pill?
Trade your water and bread
For red wine and a meal

Can you feel it?
You know it's coming for ya
Slowly creepin'
New York to California

You were young, wide eyed
Wanted money and love
Signed the line, took the cut
Guess too much is enough

Can you feel it
You know it's coming for ya
When you're sleepin'
New York and California

Baby, you're in too deep
Blank page - can't breathe
Dead deadline dreams

Now you know something's wrong
But the doctor's all smiles
And that sound in your head
Plays the rest of your life

Now you feel it
You know they're coming for ya
Slowly creepin'
New York to California

Baby, you're in too deep
Blank page - no lines
Red eyes, blue cheeks
All colors go
Black hearts, no soul
Get up - no sleep
Dead deadline dreams

Don't you pretend you're not complicit with this modern business
We tear you up and spit you out but all with your permission
Nobody's innocent you could've kept a life worth living
But in the end you wanted in - now get and be forgiven

Now you feel it
You know they're coming for ya
Slowly creepin'
New York to California
And you need it
You know they're coming for ya
Ears are bleeding
New York and California
