Methadone

Love like a needle full of methadone Prudent but not real, left you wanting more Lipstick track-marks bleeding red Like Montagues and Capulets For us, child, the stars refuse to shine Why for us, child, do the stars refuse to shine? Somewhere strung out on the lam We wound up back here again Like unstable chemicals Combining only to explode What will it take for you to notice? I am a heart on fire and all the World's a fuse, so don’t get close The trouble and the worth Am I better off on my own? Contaminated, quarantined then left alone Shipment refused, address unknown Damaged goods they soon forget In choking dust that we got left For us all, the stars refuse to shine Tap the vein and light the match We burn like stars before the crash But for you there’s still a chance Just let go What will it take for you to notice? That I am heart on fire and all the World's a fuse, so don’t get close The trouble and the worth I’m better off on my own But now there’s nowhere to run And now there’s nowhere to hide There’s nothing under the sun We haven’t already tried What will it take for you to notice? I am a hand grenade Pin already pulled so don’t let go As we chase the sun My shadow slows us down Without me along You’re better off, I know
