Drugs stopped working when I was born
But all the fairy dust I breathe
Is doing nothing to relieve
The strife of broken Autumn leaves in the sand
I`m still high on the music
As my inner child cries
For she may lose it
And the incense in my eyes
Can`t save the sin between your thighs
Because you stabbed me with your lies
You`re not the only one that`s broken
Whore, fuck your drugs
I introduced you anyway
You`re a slave
Spun undone, I met you in an alleyway
And I`m never okay
Cos I`m pretending like I`m keeping it together
I`m pretending like I`m keeping it together
My bones are scratched and so forlorn
And all the Prozac that I take
Is only lulling me to make up
This forced smile that is fake for all the doctors
But I`ll get by
For the music
Stand as an object
So they can use it
So go snort your loved white powder
I`ll just play my music louder
And get my drugs from the counter at the pharmacy
Whore, fuck your drugs
I introduced you anyway
You`re a slave
Spun undone, I met you in an alleyway
And I`m never okay
Cos I`m pretending like I`m keeping it together
Oh, I`m pretending like I`m keeping it together
Oh, I`m pretending like I`m keeping it together
Oh, I`m pretending like I`m keeping it together
And they`ll never know
