Ready To Die

Asleep in the half light
Breathing too deep to hear the swell
Penetrating the quicksand
You've come to break my quarantine

I guess I'm awake now
A second to process the sounds of your screams
Let me just put some clothes on
I need all I can get when I'm stripped bare

Because I am not to blame
You can't get enough of my shame

You're always ready to fight
It's like you're ready to die
For all the reasons wrong enough for two
It's always search and destroy
With all your weapons deployed
But with only baggage in the clip
And oh my god what an endless supply
Of am-mu-ni-tion

Please cooperate
A stuttering eye and I'm under siege
Graduation is fleeting
The cloud overhead has a shape that I can match

Good morning opposition
Round 2 begins when you're back from the brink
Because when seething from within like you are
I can imagine the hours you spend getting sick

You're always ready to fight
It's like you're ready to die
For all the reasons wrong enough for two
It's always search and destroy
With all your weapons deployed
But with only baggage in the clip
And oh my god what an endless supply
Of am-mu-ni-tion

Count to ten
On 50 fingers
Penalty fists
Engage my retreat
