Track Lyrics

The Dope Show Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The drugs, they say, make us feel so hollow
We love in vain, narcissistic and so shallow
The cops and queers, to swim, you have to swallow
Hate today, no love for tomorrow
[Pre-Chorus]
We're all stars now, in the dope show
We're all stars now, in the dope show
[Chorus]
There's lots of pretty, pretty ones
That want to get you high
But all the pretty, pretty ones
Will leave you low and blow your mind
[Post-Chorus]
We're all stars, now, in the dope show
We're all stars, now, in the dope show
[Refrain]
They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not, then they love another
They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not, then they love another
[Verse 2]
The drugs, they say, are made in California
We love your face, we'd really like to sell you
The cops and queers make good-looking models
I hate today, who will I wake up with tomorrow?
[Chorus]
There's lot's of pretty, pretty ones
That want to get you high
But all the pretty, pretty ones
Will leave you low and blow your mind
[Refrain]
They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not, then they love another
They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not, then they love another
[Chorus]
There's lots of pretty, pretty ones
That want to get you high
But all the pretty, pretty ones
Will leave you low and blow your mind
They'll blow your mind
[Outro]
We're all stars, now, in the dope show
We're all stars, now, in the dope show

Disassociative Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can tell you what they say in space
That our Earth is too gray
But when the spirit is so digital
The body acts this way
[Refrain]
That world was killing me
World was killing me, disassociative
[Pre-Chorus]
The nervous system's down
The nervous system's down, I know
The nervous system's down
The nervous system's down, I know
[Chorus]
I can never get out of here
I don't want to just float in fear
Dead astronaut in space
I can never get out of here
I don't want to just float in fear
Dead astronaut in space
[Verse 2]
Sometimes we walk like we were shot
Through our heads, my love
We write our song in space like we are
Already dead and gone
[Refrain]
Your world was killing me
World was killing me, disassociative
Your world was killing me
World was killing me, disassociative
[Chorus]
I can never get out of here
I don't want to just float in fear
Dead astronaut in space
I can never get out of here
I don't want to just float in fear
Dead astronaut in space
[Bridge]
The nervous system's down
The nervous system's down
The nervous system's down
The nervous system's down
(4, 3, 2, 1...)
[Chorus]
I can never get out of here
I don't want to just float in fear
Dead astronaut in space
I can never get out of here
I don't want to just float in fear
Dead astronaut in space

I Don’t Like the Drugs (but the Drugs Like Me) Lyrics

[Intro]
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
[Verse 1]
Norm life, baby
"We're white and oh so hetero
And our sex is missionary"
Norm life, baby
"We're quitters and we're sober
Our confessions will be televised"
[Pre-Chorus]
You and I are underdosed and we're ready to fall
We're raised to be stupid, taught to be nothing at all
We're taught to be nothing at all
[Chorus]
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
[Verse 2]
Norm life, baby
"Our God is white and unforgiving
And we're piss tested and we're praying"
Norm life, baby
I'm just a sample of a soul
Made to look just like a human being
Norm life, baby
"We're rehabbed and we're ready
For our 15 minutes of shame"
Norm life, baby
"We're talkshown and we're pointing
Just like Christians at a suicide"
[Pre-Chorus]
You and I are underdosed and we're ready to fall
We're raised to be stupid, taught to be nothing at all
We're taught to be nothing at all
[Chorus]
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
[Bridge]
"There's a hole in our soul that we fill with dope
And we're feeling fine"
"There's a hole in our soul that we fill with dope
And we're feeling fine"
"There's a hole in our soul that we fill with dope
And we're feeling fine"
[Interlude]
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
[Chorus]
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs (Drugs)
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs (Drugs)
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs (Drugs)
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs (Drugs)
[Outro]
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me
I don't like the drugs, the drugs, the drugs

Coma White Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's something cold and blank
Behind her smile
She's standing on an overpass
In her miracle mile
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away, today, today
Today, to run away
[Chorus]
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
[Verse 2]
Her mouth was an empty cut
And she was waiting to fall
Just bleeding like a polaroid
That lost all her dolls
[Pre-Chorus]
You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away, today, today
Today, to run away
[Chorus]
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
[Bridge]
You were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away, today
[Chorus]
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
