Dose for a Doze

I tried a brand new kind of sin.

Cut, cast and over dressed

I've settled down and taken in.

 

Burn books to keep the fire on.

Tongue-tied and underwhelmed

I stay warm 'til the dark is gone.

 

So bring a drug dosed for a doze.

Dream dried up and i'm out

with another trip shot up my nose.

 

But I guess you live and learn to die.

Steps stopped so you can see

it's the closest we'll ever get to high.
