RISE AGAINST - Methadone lyrics

rate me

Love like a needle full of methadone

Potent but not real, left you want it more

Lipstick track-marks bleeding wet,

Like montagues and capulets

For us child, the stars refuse to shine

Why for us child, do the stars refuse to shine?

Somewhere strung out on the lamp

We wound up back here again

Like unstable chemicals

Combining only to explode

[Chorus]

What would it take for you to notice?

I am a heart on fire

And all the world's a fuse

So don't get close

The trouble and the worth

Am I better off on my own?

Contaminated quarantine then left alone

Shipment refused - address unknown

Damaged goods they soon forget

In choking dust where we got left

For us child the stars refuse to shine...

So tap the vein and light the match

We burn like stars before we crash

But for you there's still a chance

Just let go!

[Chorus]

What would it take for you to notice?

I am a heart on fire

And all the world's a fuse

So don't get close

The trouble and the worth

Am I better off on my own?

On my own!

Now there's nowhere to run

Now there's nowhere to hi-i-ide

There's nothing under the sun

We haven't already trie-ie-ied

[Chorus]

What would it take for you to notice?

that I am a hand grenade

pin already pulled

So don't let go

As we chase the sun

My shadow slows us down

Without me along

You're better off and I know

You're better off and I know

and I know...
