Autoinjector

One hit to get me started
I throw it up onto the carpet
Oh lord! Dearly departed
Oh lord! What have you started?!

Instant gratification: Youporn
Asphyxiation
A threesome and adulteration
Oh God! Look at the state of things to come!
Should we succumb to our lives as this bittersweet embrace

Brains splattered up the walls
The kids are in the front room screaming
”We don’t have an opinion! We’re just part of the system”
The tv is on the blink
And mum and dad are on the brink as they
And brave the storm while we succumb
They hold their tongues and bang the drums in their heads

They tear the skin
They’ve stopped the clocks
What a state I’m in!
I only came looking for something new
It seems I’ve been forgotten
Shame on you! You had it, you have it, you have it all to lose

One hit to get me started
I throw it up onto the carpet
Oh lord! Dearly departed
Oh lord! What have you started?
The brain splattered walls are bleeding
The kids are in the front room screaming.

They brave the storm while we succumb
They hold their tongues and bang the drums in their heads

They tear the skin
They’ve stopped the clocks
What a state I’m in!
I only came looking for something new
It seems I’ve been forgotten
Shame on you! You had it, you have it, you have it all to lose
