I coulda got down but instead I got high Chasin’ the dragonflies Now My angel cries out loud Falling forward face first in a mud puddle
Reflecting what’s inside Sun above me the the whole time Life’s a puzzle- That’s a lie. It’s a test I hope you don't pass out
It started with a little line and grew into a mound He crushed a couple pills And reassured me with a big smile Handin’ me the straw Promised me I’d climb over the hill But never mentioned nothin’ bout the hole You drown in underground I found myself minutes later at the kitchen sink On an elevator sick Praying for the missing link But before I had the time to stop and think The pills already hit my brain and Damn, I was feelin’ great Better than I ever felt Pleasure is a leather belt Never mind the path to heaven winds Directly through Hell I finally feel like I no longer need the help Stronger than I ever felt (Stronger than I ever felt)
Stomach tied in knots I started nodding off All my close friends gathered round and tried to pry and prod I wondered if I’m wrong Feeling like I lied to God Now their tryin’ to call my mom Maybe it’s time to stop.

Life is too short for Long nights and sleepy afternoons, Plus I gotta little one at home Who wants his Daddy back. He’s learnin’ how to walk But hopefully not In his Daddy’s shoes In his Daddy’s tracks. They never told me about the power Of the drug Just how to do it, circle of influence was corrupt They showed me how to fuck Because nobody ever showed them how to make love (make love) Now that I’m done there’s a hole I feel I can’t fill It’s as if my whole life’s story Was crushed up in that pill The first one probably should have been the last, Or never been the first That lead to smoking Fentanyl patches It didn’t sink in Until I had to bury him Walkin’ home from his grave with both eyes starin’ in (staring in)
He was gonna marry her (marry her)
And now she’s doing it again. (7x)
I coulda got down but instead I got high Chasin’ the dragonflies Now my angel cries Out loud Falling forward facefirst in a mud puddle
