Its just like morphine...

A warm needle for a cold night

A little fix & itll be all over

(for a moment with you)

Poking holes in happiness

 

A little pill goes down so fine

Wash it away with liquor

A little more courage

And a head full of rage

 

Its just like morphine (they say)

Shot out as hell & recovering from the past

Crowded & loud in my head, take me to the quiet recesses of the mind

 

Cloudy as hell & buzzing on hallucinogenics

I just love it, the disassociation makes me sick as hell

 

Ethanol washes over my consciousness, blurring the faded, oh I miss the white lines, those little powdery jaded lies

A snoot of burning fire, a solitary teardrop shed

 

Wraps around the back of your skull & untightens the shackles of gravitation

High times for the cannibalistic witch hunt (bruja)

 

All the lights are on up the hill at the haunted cemetary

Ghouls & naughty boys

Snake charmer & a liar for ages

 

Monkey on your back

Addiction clicks the minutes by like hours

Like a bad habit, like a drug overhelming

The Drag or the Drop, matters very little

 

Intentions pave the way to Hell

Past lives popping up like an interuption

Hit me with a beating heart

I will drown in a bucket of a water and go down into the hole
