Dead Weight - Silent Rider

Fingers to the warmth

Call upon my name

Burn off all the skin

The flesh is all too tempting

Breathe in through your nose

And back out through your teeth

Slip me the right pill

The cough is just a dead weight

It takes a kind of man to sell a dream like that

I was a kinder man when I could dream like that

It takes a toll on me to see you beg for hell

I was a safer man when I ate up that sell

I can fix your speech

Loosen all regret

Engorge yourself on flames

Let them speed you home

Take your comfort with

What you couldn’t see

And extend your hands

To applaud the fall out

It takes a kind of man to sell a dream like that

I was a kinder man when I could dream like that

It takes a toll on me to see you beg for hell

I was a safer man when I ate up that sell
