Emergency Room
Take a seat & fill out the nearest form
Try not to leave any blanks behind
We want to make sure you're here
Come when your name is called
If you don't remember your name
come when anything is called
just in case we mean you
If you miss your turn
you'll have to start over
Sooner or later we all lose
& love ruthlessly wipe us clean
A mirror has no choice
How do you think I look
when you're not looking at me?
In a moment I'll take your history
You're already a part
of the present
Hold still so the doctor can see you better
Your light is spreading
throughout the hospital
Lie face up in this flower bed
at how high your love is blooming
Your cells are like a cloud that's ready
You have a road running
Bare your arm for a shot of love
Swallow these pills
when the time comes
The instrument that plays
has a beat you can dance to
Life has infected you with its fever
You're alone in a crowd of bacteria
You can die any time like anyone
Go home now
You've never been more alive
