Dressed in blue what have they done to you?
Although they said there'd be no pain, they cut your head and took your brain
You shook their hand and in you bought then never gave another thought
Dressed in blue look what they've done to you
I call you
But I can't control
You do it for pride
Never do what you're told
And you say I can't be saved
From following this road into the grave
And you know what? I think I've heard enough
So try to get someone else to behave
Oh won’t you try and get someone else to behave?
Dressed in blue we're at the door for you
Won't let me in to check your pulse, but it's your choice. You're an adult
I took your side when no one would. You turned me down and said "I'm good"
Dressed in blue we're at the door for you
I call you
But I can't control
You do it for pride
Now you'll never grow old
Everything you do is for you. That's not what you say
You turn the wrong corner every day
You want a nice life but you don't wanna change
You already have in so many ways
Remember the time you got sent home?
I walked with you so you wouldn't go alone
That's the way it was supposed to be
A house for four has room for one
But you'd never believe that you're under the gun
Yes we are wired differently

Room 14 your ghosts are still alive and well
Room 14 you've taken me backwards through hell
Can you see the color of the mirrors on the wall?
Is it me with devil eyes on focus from all?
Room 14
Room 14 your virtues have come under siege
Room 14 you hide behind the company you keep
Animosity, ugly thoughts, and presentiments
You've aimed at me with tendrils that leave bloody prints
Room 14
Have you ever been threatened by someone so out of touch with the world?
They don't know much but they think you are at fault
Peace to you all
Good luck with your spineless back against the wall
Room 14 have you got yours? Cause I've got mine
Room 14 no cure for missing time
Kerosene to end this relentless foray
Burn it clean to drive the obsession away
Room 14

Sylvius

Oh Sylvius, you hear what you want to hear
The fact of the matter's not getting in your ear
So pass the time
For a while
Day
After day
The night and day
Become the same
Then you die
Well, we all die
So come with us. It's post-truth, have no fears
Walking on your egg shells every time you're near
Won't you calm down
Before you drown?
In hate
So much hate
It's okay
You'll have your way
Before you're gone
And we're all gone
We'll be dressed up bones 'til the cows come home
'Cause you dropped your holy hand grenade down the rabbit hole
Is it you or is it me that have been acting weird lately?
You can have that archetype, I'll stick to recency
Oh, Sylvius. Split from ear to ear
The Glasgow smile for your brain, does it make you happier?
Possibly
Plausibly
But not me
Oh, but not me
Oh Sylvius, you hear what you want to hear
The fact of the matter, well it's fallen on deaf ears
Won't you calm down
Before you drown?
In hate
So much hate
It's okay
You'll have your way
Before you're gone
And we're all gone
Now I think that you and I should go our separate ways
There's nothing nice for you and me to say
Yeah I really think that you and I should go our separate ways
With nothing constructive for you and me to say
