lyrics

we hit the peak already sinking slow
we hit the ground with nothing left to show
oh but so it goes
no endgame, no remorse

cheaper than dirt, just a fix, not a cure
don't let yourself believe too soon to be sure
but how long do you wait
'til you know what's truly yours?

it seemed like such a minor vice to say
come on baby let's roll the dice
and if we break it's 'cause we tried
to leave illusion cold behind

I wound up on the other side of town
cash in hand like a stone to drown
and that's how it starts
if you're money don't run dry
'cause it ain't cheap getting high
how much oblivion can you buy
until you realize

it seemed like such a minor vice to say
come one baby, let's roll the dice
and if we break it's 'cause we tried
to leave illusion cold behind

a room full of walls and a mind on the brink
it's just the kind of thing you never think
is gonna happen to you
but that don't change when it comes
no it don't change when it comes
