Icon For Hire
Iodine
[Verse 1]
I say I wanna be healthy, but I turn up the noise
The IV drips a steady stream of poison
I think I'm just in love with the feeling
Break my bones so I can feel them healing

[Chorus]
"Crazy" is, I believe, the medical term
When we wanna recover, but we don't wanna learn
Keep breaking what's been fixed a thousand times
And gimme some more of that iodine

[Post-Chorus]
I can't make reality connect
I push till I have nothing left
But if we want to wake up
Why we still singin' these lullabies?
I'll run in circles till I crash
One day these steps will be my last
But if we want to wake up
Why we still singin' these lullabies?

[Verse 2]
I say I wanna be happy, but I quickly forget
Will I sabotage all the good I've got left?
Depression's like a big fur coat
It's made of dead things but it keeps me warm
[Chorus]
"Crazy" is, I believe, the medical term
When we wanna recover, but we don't wanna learn
Keep breaking what's been fixed a thousand times
And gimme some more of that iodine

[Post-Chorus]
I can't make reality connect
I push till I have nothing left
But if we want to wake up
Why we still singin' these lullabies?
I'll run in circles till I crash
One day these steps will be my last
But if we want to wake up
Why we still singin' these lullabies?

[Bridge]
I don't like pain, but I bring it to life
I don't like scars but I am good with a knife
I don't like tears when I'm starting to cry
And then I realize I'm destroying my life
I do this to myself
I do this to myself
Stop blaming someone else
We do this to ourselves
[Post-Chorus]
I can't make reality connect
I push till I have nothing left
But if we want to wake up
Why we still singin' these lullabies?
I'll run in circles till I crash
One day these steps will be my last
But if we want to wake up
Why we still singin' these lullabies?

[Outro]
So if we want to wake up
Why we still singin' these, why we still singin' these lullabies?
