Swallow The Seeds Lyrics

I'm searching for an answer
on the map to nowhere you drew
and if you won't give me a destination
will you at least let me give one to you
you won't find it drawn on my body
it won't be penciled in your mind
or in all the greatest paintings that
no artist could ever find
but maybe you'll cut your chest open
and eventually you'll be able to look inside yourself

everyone is hurting
if they aren't they're just numb
no amount of Novocain
could ever cure someone

you're searching hard for nothing
cause you don't want to find a thing
you keep leading in the birds
with a sweeter, larger seed
that somebody once spit out
cause our bodies aren't meant
to put something in our mouths
that our stomachs can't digest
and my mouth is always open
but I won't swallow the seeds
cause you can't grow a plant
where the sunlight doesn't reach

I don't need your medication
I like the way I see
I don't need a doctor
I think these doctors need me

everyone is hurting
if they aren't they're just numb
but no amount of Novocain
could ever cure someone

I guess there's no solution
cause the syringe is running dry
we couldn't cure this cancer
but don't say we didn't try
the chemicals seem useless
as they couldn't cure the pain
but I'm feeling better now
cause at least I found the vein
