"Desire Is A Terrible Thing"
-
Slippin' on a snail
That I stepped on
Watch out as I fall
'Cause I tripped on it
No need for alarm
'Cause I'm not landing
I am getting high
So I am flying
But since "desire is a terrible thing"
I will soon be dying
The world, I don't care to know
I'm runnin' down a path
That I won't come back from
I will puff this final blow
Of fluffy white clouds of smoke
And I will be the one to choke
'Cause I don't care
You can't stop me
Yeah, I guess you're right
"I'm in love with being broke"
I don't remember the day, or the night
When I sold my soul to my disease
But there is no hope for me
No one can love an addict
So a bullet to my head
Is thee only way to fix this
