lyrics

cast iron pipes
contain streams of my consciousness
rusted elbows and lime
pressurize and re-direction them
it's a contract i signed
seemed a deal at the time

and now there's a
city on top of my head
a city on top of my universe
a city on top of my head
it's drained away all of my aquifers

so i
drink to stay alive
drink to fill back up
drink to stay alive
drink to fill back up
drink to stay alive
contain the empty inside
so the city in my head
don't run dry

don't run dry
don't run dry
don't run dry

sometimes I feel
like a dinosaur
my body liquefied
ten million years before
i'm in your party glasses
i'm in your magazines
c'mon baby can you
smell the gasoline
as the fire in your head
burns my energy

energy
energy
energy

so i
drink to stay alive
drink to fill back up
drink to stay alive
drink to fill back up
I drink to stay alive
to keep the fire alight
so the city in my head
don't run dry

don't run dry
don't run dry
don't run dry

but we all run out
we all run out
(we all run out)
we all run out
(we all run out)
we all run out
(we all run out)
we all run out someday

but cast iron pipes
all that's left of my consciousness
busted elbows and time
petrify and re-direction them
it's a contract i signed
shoulda known at the time
and now there's a
ruin on top of my head
a ruin top of my universe
a ruin on top of my head
it's drained away all of my aquifers
