Lyrics

White noise, I’m picking my poison:
ritalin and codeine.
I’m losing. What’s the point in choosing
when heads is the noose and tails is the guillotine?
But I can feel that sting
telling me that something’s working.
Or maybe I’d do best
to ingest the medicine chest.
This time tomorrow I’ll be gone
The more it hurts, the more it works
Mercurochrome.
Crawl ten paces. A little pink trace
isn’t gonna help when I bleed.
From what they say about what doesn’t kill you,
Charles Atlas has got nothing on me.
But then he’s probably dead,
buried in a beach towel with some co-ed.
Off in a better place
while I’m down here, sand in my face.
I must be feeling just swell.
‘cause leaving you hurts like hell.
