Caine (Radio Trouble) [Single]

Staggering around the avenue
Searching for something I can fall into
When in the corner of my eye I see what I describe
As the man himself, with what I've been prescribed
He removes his hat and stares me in the eye
And says, "enough time to choose? There's only so much to buy"
He reaches in his coat and hands me the brew
So I take a swig but all I see is blue
(Oh my god, hahahaha)

I used to be calm cool and collected with that shine in the air
Kept my suit in check, always fixing my hair
Success and power, that's the name of the game
So I kept my head down, made sure I wasn't to blame (for)
The removal of the workers and the high cut-rate
Don't go condemning me, the Depression was Great
My career was worse than a pint of home-brew
But I was good at it, so I saw it through
(Oh no, whatever will I do)

It's never enough no it's never enough
See my hand? You'll never call my bluff
No, It's never enough for me never enough
Please just a little more, something to sniff or puff

I quit with thirty thousand dollars in my bank
For that I have only myself to thank
Pursued my dreams of the radio
Waiting for my success to grow
Years went by without getting a chance
Nothing ever worked feels like I'm in a trace
If I focus on my goals maybe I won't throw up
That's it, screw this, I give up

I stumble on home with my suit in a mess
At least I can say that I did my best
I had a good run, but everything must end
"Hold on there pall, looks like you need a friend"

It's never enough no it's never enough
See my hand? You'll never call my bluff
No, It's never enough for me never enough
Please just a little more, something to sniff or puff

"I'm all stocked up from h to c"
"What you might need is some ecstasy"
"For a small price you'll be happy and free"
"You'll be back to yourself quicker than counting to three"

I asked him what he thought would make it stick
He hands me a bottle that should do the trick
I look into the glass, see only shapes and shadows
I have nothing left, so here it goes
(Wooo, I'm back baby)

It's never enough no it's never enough
See my hand? You'll never call my bluff
No, It's never enough for me never enough
Please just a little more, something to sniff or puff

I went back to work, no longer felt like a chore
Nothing seemed to bother me anymore
If ever I was down or low on self-regard
I would always find my friend and buy another shard
I worked at the radio for three more years
My addictions helped me rip apart all my fears
My new doctor upped my dose and opened all new doors
Oh come on now, maybe just a little bit more

It's never enough no it's never enough
See my hand? You'll never call my bluff
No, It's never enough for me never enough
Please just a little more, something to sniff or puff

So now I walk down the street with my hands in the air
Knowing for the radio that I'm the new heir
Made all the mistakes that I want in the past, but now I don't care cause I'm having a blast
Just turn up the volume and listen but I might be moving too fast

Everything's spinnin' my body is thinnin' but I'm always grinnin' cuz I know that I'm sinnin'
I'm at the beginnin' we're at the first innin' had my fair share (of)
Vomiting nausea pain my cornea loss of my consciousness body dysphoria
Seizures and fits, takin' the hits I'll collapse right here
Can't tell what's real can't tell what's fake
Maybe this life was a huge mistake
My whole life turned into a tragedy
Don't be scared, I'm only shouting at me

It's never enough no it's never enough
See my hand? You'll never call my bluff
No, It's never enough for me never enough
Please just a little more, something to sniff or puff
It's never enough no it's never enough
See my hand? You'll never call my bluff
No, It's never enough for me never enough
Please just a little more, something to sniff or puff
