Neil Gunther - Dying an Intellectual Death Lyrics

Living in a desert like I'm living in the ocean
Floating through a current stabbing everyone I see
Was covered in honey in the caverns of an ants' nest
Ready to fight but not ready to bleed
I never got the feeling you were leading me on
Till it was too late
Till it was too late for me
I never thought I'd die an intellectual death
Till I lay down and took my last breath
Living in a city like I'm buried in a cornfield
Covered in deathwatch beetles and worms
Holding to a hope that swallowed me whole
Jumping off rusty ships so I don't get on my own nerves
I never got the feeling you were leading me on
Till it was too late
Till it was too late for me
I never thought I'd die an intellectual death
Till I lay down and took my last breath
How long till I'm the fool?
In your eyes I'm bleeding blue blood
I'm like a horseshoe crab
In a lab, I only exist
So I can cure your own illness
That's my only purpose
I never got the feeling you were leading me on
Till it was too late
Till it was too late for me
I never thought I'd die an intellectual death
Till I lay down and took my last breath
I never got the feeling you were leading me on
Till it was too late
Till it was too late for me
I never thought I'd die an intellectual death
Till I lay down and took my last breath
In your eyes I'm bleeding blue blood...
