The shit that you think you need, is draining out your life
And while you’re out and are neglecting your bouts you don’t even see
Through those dull and hazy eyes, life’s just passing by
You’re fading away and everything you once were - the mere husk of a human being
Decomposing alive, adrift and left to die / A long abandoned reality is gorging on your mind
You’re diggin’ your own grave / and no one’s there to stand by
You may think you lived free / but now it’s time to die
Just drinking to pass the time no concern for kids and wife
Oh it sure seems like a good tradition to me and who are you to cut the ties?
Legally prescribed, how else could you cope with life
Seeking refuge in high, not just numbing your mind - do you really believe your lies?
You’re diggin’ your own grave / and no one’s there to stand by
You may think you lived free / but now it’s time to die
You’re splitting the pills and deluding yourself - oh you’re not fooling anyone!
I hear your scraping up the lines - sure it’s just that one time…
