I was only 15, standout on the Ave.

You're chasing a bad dream, a luxury I never had

Living my life in the box, or sleepin in the trash

Taking girls for the things I need, like booze, drugs and ass

Get stoned, daily survival in the war zone

Yeah our teens meant everything, alright

Half rack, smoking out till it's all black

Death trap, watch me going blind, oh

I don't care what you say, I

Or what you do

Chemical addiction is

Getting rid of you

So high, colors turn to sound

Goodbye, let us in and we'll lay you in the ground

Chosen on the floor, take another drag

Bought a bunch of valiums from skinny broadway bag

I don't know much about heroin but I, I wanna try

Just about everything once before I die

Get stoned, daily survival in the war zone

Yeah our teens meant everything, alright

Half rack, smoking out till it's all black

Death trap, watch me going blind, oh

I don't care what you say, I

Or what you do

Chemical addiction is

Getting rid of you

So high, colors turn to sound

Goodbye, let us in and we'll lay you in the ground

Now Jerry do me like this...

Get stoned, daily survival in the war zone

Yeah our teens meant everything, alright

Half rack, smoking out till it's all black

Death trap, watch me going blind, oh
