Lyrics
Chemicals
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Light it up and burn it all to the ground
You always bring your invitation
A chance to be another me
'Cause you know I'm not your friend
Without your peace offering
You see the scars, the skin and bone
I'm hanging on by a rope
But you'd steal my last breath and wait for a chance
To push me right off the edge
Paranoid, I'm gonna have to sell my soul
Tie it up and hope it don't make a sound
Chemicals, they're gonna make me lose control
Light it up and burn it all to the ground
If I didn't know better I'd have thought
At least you were on my side
But you know me better than me
And you love it when I'm paralyzed
You know it's irresponsible
To pretend it's a favor, oh
To let someone else pull the trigger
When you put the bullet in the chamber
Paranoid, I'm gonna have to sell my soul
Tie it up and hope it don't make a sound
Chemicals, they're gonna make me lose control
Light it up and burn it all to the ground
I'll fight this fire with gasoline
This is a social disease
It's a self-medicated American dream
Paranoid, I'm gonna have to sell my soul
Tie it up and hope it don't make a sound
(Tie it up and hope it don't make a sound)
Chemicals, they're gonna make me lose control
Light it up and burn it all to the ground
(Light it up and burn it all to the ground)
Anyone notice that I'm dead, not alive?
I'll cover the tracks and retrace my steps
My demons resurface, they take all, all that's left
