Alcohol

We’ve turned the night back into day again
I have my breakfast at eight PM
Thoughts flow slow like chewing gum
My head feels heavy as lead, my knees are numb

Sworn promises in red and blue light
Forty proof balance, feeling alright
Gray matter in a soft explosion
Visions of sunrise and sunset motion

What’s going on, what’s happened here?
I’m just trying to calm my nerves, dear

Alcohol
Is your medic in times of need
Alcohol
Is your parachute and your lifeboat indeed
Alcohol
Is the tightrope that you walk on
Alcohol
Alcohol

The high-class scene dreams of cocaine
And in the school bathroom, it smells like weed
The pharmacist takes Valium and speed
And when it gets dark, they reach for the drink

What’s going on, what’s happened here?
I’m just trying to calm my nerves, dear

Alcohol
Is your medic in times of need
Alcohol
Is your parachute and your lifeboat indeed
Alcohol
Is the tightrope that you walk on
Alcohol
Is the ship that you go down on
Alcohol
Is your medic in times of need
Alcohol
Is your parachute and your lifeboat indeed
Alcohol
Is the dressing on your salad head
Alcohol
Alcohol
