Modern Junkie

I get a shooting pain from the tip of my finger
Up through my forearm all the way to my shoulder
I feel it constantly in times of stress and anxiety
But the pain always fades when you smile at me

Two months ago
My life was better than it's ever been
And I'm not sure what's changed
But everything has caved in

Maybe these days I'd like to think I'm a little better
But I'd still throw my life away for five seconds of pleasure
Now my face needs a shave and my hair needs a cut
So I can look my best when I fuck everything up

Oh
Oh
It's melting your brain
So it can live in your head
Replacing ambitions
With feelings of dread
It's melting your brain
So it can live in your head
Replacing ambitions
With feelings of dread

I've seen more debauchery and been more depraved
Than any man in history before 1998
Then she finds herself out on a boat
With a man who abuses her to help himself cope
Where the sea is calm but the waters are rough
Achieving levels of intimacy that I could only dream of

Oh
Oh
It's melting your brain
So it can live in your head
Replacing ambitions
With feelings of dread
It's melting your brain
So it can live in your head
Replacing ambitions
With feelings of dread

Oh I want to believe in
Everything happening for a reason
But everything I feel has been felt before
And every thought's already been put into words
And even moving forward, I feel directionless
Lying on the floor wondering how to get out of this
Cause I'm sick of living like I've got no ambition
And wasting my life trying to make a decision

It's melting your brain
So it can live in your head
Replacing ambitions
With feelings of dread
It's melting your brain
So it can live in your head
Replacing ambitions
With feelings of dread
It's melting your brain
So it can live in your head
Replacing ambitions
With feelings of dread
It's melting your brain
So it can live in your head
Replacing ambitions
With feelings of dread
