Edison Arcade - No More Heavy Metal Lyrics

When the dust has finally settled on the surface of the moon
There will be no more heavy metal no more sleeping late with you
I made a pentagram of daisies in the vacant lot next door
I'm pretty sure I'm crazy and you don't love me anymore
So you write down your confessions in a style all your own
As I sit and battle my depression on a throne made out of bones
The streets are filled with danger the rivers all run red
I offered money to a stranger
To shoot me in the head

But everything you wanted me to be I'll never be
I'll avoid those traps so cleverly I would rather walk into the sea in reverie
Than hide inside a memory

I'm half asleep and feeling reckless driving on the wrong side of the road
You gather teeth to make a necklace while I count down to explode
Your shelves are filled with skulls and potions and I'm a sacrificial lamb
You swallow pills to dull emotions til you don't know who I am
But your heart burns like Norwegian churches on the coldest winter night
As you recite Satanic verses in the softly fading light
So I bought a book of witchcraft to teach me how to raise the dead
But my mood swings gave you whiplash so you got drunk and shaved your head

But everything you wanted me to be I'll never be
I'll avoid those traps so cleverly I would rather walk into the sea in reverie
Than hide inside a memory
