Story Behind the Song
SUICIDE WATCH
by angelo ©gianni
Shot with a diamond bullet?
Put away your jewel gun
just put it away.
Inoculated arms,
Thin kindle lighting easy
burning clear
with no temperature
and no smell.
Too pure for fumes
casting shadows of ruined lives.
There is no need
to make a campfire
of inoculated arms
to know horror.
It lives right here.
Right here in my
un
severed
body.
In my landscaped neighborhood,
In my pressed shirt
and my trimmed hair
In my secure job
In my loving relationships
In my trying
In my success
What you saw was horror,
yes.
Blatant and labeled,
an atrocity
Thats what it took to shake you up,
thats what it took to drive you away.
But true horror is more subtle,
and its everywhere.
When you come to recognize the refined horror,
The cultured horror,
the horror that hangs invisible from your eyelids
and screams in your face,
when you come to see that,
the jungle will not be far enough away.
Lyrics
Suicide Watch
©gianni
Out of all of your reasons
you can only pick one
here it comes
instead of falling to pieces
youd rather fall into one
heres a gun
want me to sort through the ruble
slip the tag on your toe
I dont know
and Im going to start laughing
Im not checking your note
stupid hope
Ive watched you sleep with your shoes on
It wasnt hard to pretend
(you) looked content
tore the floor boards from hiding
wasting all that you know
here we go
Im such a fan, Im so deceived
you wear your heart tucked up your sleeve
I failed to wake up this morning
and its a blur and it all spins
this hole is here Im getting in
dont want the dirt to be lonely
CHORUS
were you healed or were you fed
it doesnt matter anymore
were you there or were you led
it doesnt matter anymore
what is talent what is faith
it doesnt matter anymore
were you something or a waste
It never mattered
I didnt know I didnt think
I need you here I need a drink
I never thought for a moment
I threw advice helped make your bed
broke (a) champagne bottle on your head
(and) waved as you went off floating
CHORUS
