Lyrics

Broken bones and ambulance ride
They checked me in and told me wait in line
My ward looked like a battle zone
Would I ever make it home?
First night
High as a kite
Second night
Man, the pain starts to bite
Drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip
Morphine drip
It didn’t help a bit
The surgeon was working overtime
The pain was starting to blow my mind
IV in a hospital bed
Five nights in I wished I was dead
Third night
Candy stripers meant well
Fourth night
I’m going to hell
Drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip
Morphine drip
It didn’t help a bit
I survived but I can’t survive you
All broken up, now we’re through
Doling out the sympathy
Drop by drop don’t comfort me
Fifth night
Writhing on the floor
Sixth night
I need more
Drip, drip, drip
Drip, drip, drip
Morphine drip
It didn’t help a bit
Morphine drip
Drip by drip
Morphine drip
Drip by drip
Morphine drip
Drip by drip
Morphine drip
Drip by drip
Morphine drip
Drip by drip
Morphine drip
Drip by drip
