Voices of Addiction

No time for any understanding
Drowning in pain need a lifeline
Her life is full of broken bottles and
Tattoo the Hollywood sign
She's busy singing with her landlord
But screams at her boss before going numb
Like an old song with a new friend
That isn't half as fun

Welcome to your overtime education
Where the city meets the sea
And the voices of addiction keep you company
Sending a desperate prayer for relief

Beyond the walls of hours
Complaints of dirty sheets and busted hearts
In a bad dream when you come clean
Before the suffering starts
She's just a broken spirit
And she's running out of borrowed time
Family in the mid west waiting
Postcards of the Hollywood sign

Welcome to your overtime education
Where the city meets the sea
And the voices of addiction keep you company
Sending a desperate prayer for relief

Welcome to your overtime education
Where the city meets the sea
And the voices of addiction keep you company
Sending a desperate prayer for relief

When push came to shove, she said she fell in love
With a cynical bore, with a celebrity buzz
Lipstick will ruin white collars, common sense in the dollar
But she's too shy to dance, don't believe in romance
