Ice Nine Kills Lyrics

Alice

Dear diary
Thus battles on the verge of emergence
Call in a chemical warfare attack

Tempting fate with the crisis that my vices will orchestrate
Cold sweats as my bold pupils dilate
I could die from the weight of it all
Or make it through another close call

Here's a note to myself, "Back to the wall
The higher you get,girl, the farther you fall"
Here's a note to myself, "Alone is the pain
How close can you come to the edge
Before you walk away?"

Through blackened veins the evil in the needle bleeds into my brain
And sells me on the sense of a fools escape
I could die from the weight of it all
Or make it through another close call

Here's a note to myself, "Back to the wall
The higher you get,girl, the farther you fall"
Here's a note to myself "Alone in the pain
How close can you get to the edge
Before you walk away?"

But I just need one more taste, one more taste,
Scars earned for searching for solution
So desperate just to feel
Sold on self-prescribed pollution, just distorting it what was real
And so it goes in the throes of what I can't overcome
Painfully numb
Dear diary
This battles on the verge on emergency

Here's a note to myself, "Back to the wall
The higher you get,girl, the farther you fall"
Here's a note to myself, "Alone in the pain
How close can you get to the edge
Before you walk away?"

Before you walk away
Before you walk away
