One more dose (lonely pain part 2)

you're damned in the corner of a crowded café
you don't have the guts to break away
you tried to sing the blues, it didn't work out
you know too well what it's all about
you're lookin' for your brother in the same dirty spike
the colour of the subway in your bloodshot eyes
you find it supercool to show white feathers
you have a little problem puttin' two & two together

[p. 346]

 

one more dose, cause he never knows when to quit

 

one more dose, it's so hard to split

 

no use to strike if you can't hit

 

no use to strike

 

 

 

heat is huntin', love is rare

 

before you fix your candy you better beware

 

you're freezin' you up in your smelly flat

 

creepy & sneaky, it feels so bad

 

your baby wants you to do it one more time

 

but the peach made your putz hang down so fine

 

sometimes you wonder if there's life before death

 

too much shit goin' round in your head

 

 

 

but I get along without you very well, of course I do

 

but when the lonely pain hits the brain

 

and the leaves come down and so does the rain

 

I long for you, sweet mama

 

I long for you

 

 

 

you're lookin' for your brothers in the same dirty spike

 

the colour of the subway in your bloodshot eyes

 

and you find it supercool to show white feathers

 

you have a little problem puttin' two & two together

 

heat is huntin', love is rare

 

before you fix your candy, you better beware

 

it's freezin' you up in your smelly flat

 

creepy & crappy & cheapy, feels so bad

 

 

 

you're cryin' in the dark too cold to touch

 

the lookin' glass is shattered

 

too scared to move, too smashed to care

 

the chosen ones are scattered

 

 

 

goddamn get rid of whips & leather

 

get yourself together

 

stop sulkin' bout the weather

 

you gotta get it better

 

no moony mood can matter

 

and your chance gets fat & fatter

one more dose, it's so hard to split

 

no use to strike if you can't hit
