lyrics

There's gotta be some old wives' way to keep my light shining
I'm too damn old to keep thinking about dying
Sadness is a young man's game but I just keep on playing
"Everything is cool" and other lies I keep on saying to myself
And to my friends: "The static never ends" but there's more than just one way to hold your head inside your hands.
So take a bow, come on and let it out. The devil is in your brain, you gotta drown him now.

Called my closest kin and told them they better start digging
I got a pocket full of pills and I don't know what I've been thinking
But I woke up safe and sound with a pounding headache
Oh, she's stinging.
I had a pack of smokes but now I'm out and my brain is spinning.
My teeth were grabbing radio waves and my ears were ringing
I heard my voice on your stereo and I was singing
La di da di da di da

And to my friends: "The static never ends" but there's more than just one way to hold your head inside your hands.
So take a bow, come on and let it out. The devil is in your brain, you gotta drown him now.
