Code Red Lyrics by Excuse 17

Excuse Seventeen

1994

I have a shameful something
I want to share with you
I cut myself
'Cause thats the only way I can feel

Emergency room here we come
All cut up again
Pocket knife right through the head
"Accidents happen", that's what she said
Weird, these things at time
So we all just wait

This hidden part of me
Is about homicidal control
I cut myself
'Cause that's the only way I can deal
Playing games in the other room
Words carry through the wall
Dizziness takes it all away
I can't hear anything you say

Couldn't get out of bed today
They said she must be dead
But it's too soon to tell I know
Have to wait
I'm sick of waiting

Security blankets
Babydoll hatchets
Security blankets
Wrapped all around us
