Vacillate

If I don’t wake in the morning
Don’t call out my name in the dark
You’ll know that I’ve been tempted
Just burn the place down
Let it glow like Baghdad
Undo the stitching in my heart

All of you feelers and fumblers
You’ll know that I’ve been tempted
Sit back and watch me fall apart

This blood that I lie under
Deepens the rift within my mind
So you’ll know
You’ll know that I’ve been tempted
Unbutton the bullet and its heart
