Hey now baby
I’ve got nothing to say
And even if I did
Would it ever make you stay

I’ve been running on empty
You’ve been hanging on luck
Waiting for the bottom to fall out
Just to get unstuck

You’ve climbed up
To the top of the hill
But I’m parked at the bottom
Snorting blood and pills

No matter how much you try
You’ll never drag me up
So let me lay in the dirt
While you play in the sky

Seeing that hope
Makes me so mad
I know it’s sick
That’s why it hurts so bad

Let me explore the dirt
Because I can’t take
Exploring your eyes
