Scared to live, scared to die
In one ear but not out the other
Living is dying and dying is living
Said to me from the man with a needle in his vein
Just have another drink, sit back and wash away the pain
The agony's continuing
With a bloodstained history
It's hard to make sense of it
Bile in the sink
Because I can't eat
And there's nothing to purge
Except what's left of me

Scared to live, scared to die
In one ear but not out the other
Living is dying and dying is living
Said to me from the man with a needle in his vein
Just have another drink, sit back and wash away the pain
The agony's continuing
With a bloodstained history
It's hard to make sense of it
Bile in the sink
Because I can't eat
And there's nothing to purge
Except what's left of me
