#4 Insulation
insulated from my arms to my finger tips I'm feeling nothing, living in the dark I'd breath in air but the padding's too thick starting something, living in the dark you can run, you can run or feel nothing at all and the end yeah the end seems like nothing at all I've got a blind spot with a notion to itch my fingers catching, hoping for some luck I've got a mind set on the problems I've fixed my lip is trembling, hoping for some luck you can run, you can run or feel nothing at all at the end yeah the end won't be the end at all seems like nothing at all when my neighbor's noise is impossibly grand my ears are straining, nothing's left to catch I won't feel the ripples as he falls from his stand no more complaining, nothing's left to catch you can run, you can run till you're up to the wall and the end, yeah the end seems like nothing at all
#5 Murderers
