When I think back on this life I guess we were doing the best we could And to look at us from the outside I'm sure it seems somewhat romantic but when you've tasted excess Everything else tastes bland Yeah, we had everything to lose But we still lived like we were about to die After all, we were the drug scouts of america
I've begun evaporating Right before your eyes I just keep regurgitating My own demise
I miss today I miss the past I miss my veins 'cause they've collapsed A simple thought occurs to me
I'm face down on the tracks The train is coming fast And it's not derailing It's not the first time And this won't be the last That my heart is failing
As the blood is rushing to my head And from my wrists I'm in love with all the things I know I should resist
And all the times you said to me Your falling down ones destiny A simple thought occurs to me
I'm face down on the tracks The train is coming fast And you're right there waiting It's not the first time And this won't be the last That my heart is failing
[Spoken] Like I was saying The look in the eyes of death Was intoxicating Taking it into our lungs Laughing at ourselves Where others would probably cry And more importantly I'm proud of this guy Staring face to face with the demons And not back down Takes a constitution that most people just don't have A life gets soiled with sex, drugs and rock and roll
I'm face down on the tracks The train is coming fast And it's not derailing It's not the first time And this won't be the last That my heart is failing
I'm face down on the tracks The train is coming fast And you're right there waiting It's not the first time And this won't be the last That my heart is failing
