Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Let's get fucked up and die
I'm speaking figuratively, of course
Like the last time that I committed suicide, social suicide
Yeah, so I'm already dead on the inside
But I can still pretend with my memories and photographs
I've learned to love the lie
[Verse 2]
I wanna know what it's like to be awkward and innocent, not belligerent
I wanna know how it feels to be useful and pertinent and have common sense
Yeah, let me in, let me into the club, cause I wanna belong
And I need to get strong, and if memory serves
I'm addicted to words and they're useless
[Verse 3]
Let's get fucked up and die
I'm riding hard on the last legs of every lie
And the BMX bike of my life is about to explode, I'm about to explode
I'm a mess, I'm a wreck
I am perfect, and I have learned to accept all my problems and shortcomings
Cause I'm so visceral, yet deeply inept
[Verse 4]
I want to thank you for being a part of my forget-me-nots and the marigolds
And all the things that don't get old
Is it legal to do this? I surely don't know
It's the only way I have learned to express myself around other people's descriptions of life
I'm afraid, I'm alone and entirely useless
[Verse 5]
Let's get fucked up and die
For the last time I'm feeling, we'll try not to smile
As we cover our heads and drink heavily into the nights
That's no shocking surprise
I believe that I can overcome this and beat everything in the end
But I choose to abuse for the time being
Maybe I'll win, but for now, I've decided to die
[Verse 6]
Sister soldiers, you've been such a positive influence on my mental frame
If I could ever repay you, I would, but I'm hard up for cash
And my memory lacks initiative
[Verse 7]
God damn, the liquor store's close, we were so close to scoring
It hurts, it destroys, till it kills
I am tired and hungry ad totally useless
[Verse 8]
In this department
