I don't care about the state of my hair
I get something out of nothing that just wasn't there
And your kiss kiss kiss is never gonna blow me away
Dreams of escape keep me awake
I'm never gonna get out and make it away
I'm a stone dead tripper dying in a fantasy
Like a cracked open sky it helps you to die
Don't split it, scrape it - you're screamin automatic pain
You're too young kid you're gonna get hit
Looks like you're never gonna make it off the government list

Repeat intro
I don't mind about the state of my mind
But you know it's good for nothing and I left you behind
It's a sick sick city but it's never gonna make me insane
If you're talking for real then go cut a deal
You're facing up to living out the way that you feel
And you shake shake shake cuz you know you'll never make it away
Like a cracked open sky it helps you to die
Don't split it, scrape it - you're screamin automatic pain
You're too young kid you're gonna get hit
Looks like you're never gonna make it off the government list
