Chase the feeling 'til you die
Harris doesn't moralize or diagnose. She just lists the wreckage: "let it run your children off and let it run your wife."
The phrase "Chase the feeling 'til you die" repeats like a grim mantra. It's a plain statement of compulsion, not an argument.
It's a flat, terminal declaration. The song circles back to it, refusing any other resolution.
The line "Ain't you handsome when you're high" hangs there, bitter and familiar.

It takes one to know one, baby
I know how you feel
You got your hunger
And some problems that are real
And you're dealing with some demons
Who are driving you insane
And I've seen them drag you screaming
Down the hallways of your brain
And you got loaded again
Ain't you handsome when you're high
Nothing matters
Chase the feeling 'til you die
Let it right on in there, baby
Let it run your life
Let it run your children off
And let it run your wife
Let it take the joy you love
And turn it to despair
You knew you knew better, baby
You just didn't care
And you got loaded again
Ain't you handsome when you're high
Nothing matters
Chase the feeling 'til you die
Blame it on the moonlight, baby
Think of number one
Tangled up in two
When you were shining like the sun
With some pretty piece of hunger
Who was younger than her eyes
On a scale of cosmic thunder
It's a wonder you're alive
And you got loaded again
Ain't you handsome when you're high
Nothing matters
Chase the feeling 'til you die
Nothing matters
Chase the feeling 'til you die
Nothing matters
Chase the feeling 'til you die
