My Next Fix

That’s it I’m done,

I’m through chasing the sun.

You ain’t seen nothing yet,

this downward spiral’s just begun.

So tonight I’m gonna get fucked up,

and partake in lots of other,

Self-destructive behaviors.

Chorus:

Cuz depression is the new drug and it’s,

all the rage.

This notebook is my outlet,

apathy fills every page.

This pain gets me by til I can get,

my next fix.

The addiction runs deep,

a generation of masochists.

End Chorus:

I just listen as the people talk,

letting the smoke fill my lungs.

Two friends are going to Iraq,

the alcohol loosens their tongues.

“We’re just kids, man.

And we’re fighting a fucking war.”

The other recounts the story,

of how he killed a young boy.

“I was just following orders” he said.

And these are the first tears I have shed,

in quite some time. X2

Chorus 1x

I’ve fallen down,

more times than I can count.

So just leave me here,

drunk and weeping on the ground.

Don’t try to pick me up,

until you can do the same for yourself.

A group of friends plus the alcohol,

give us one unforgiving night.

And now I see the truth,

we’re all dying in our own right.

Chorus 1x End:
