Lyrics

Xanax And Wine

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.

My cell is ringing, no ID

I want to know who's calling

My garden's overgrown

I go out on my belly crawling / (he's crawling)

I got CCTV, pornography, CNBC

I got the nightly news

To get to know the enemy

All I want is a picture of you

All I want is to get right next to you

All I want is a picture in a locket

Your face in my pocket

I take a pill to stop it

Take me, save me from myself

I know that you've been good to me

Now I need you not to be

Wake me, I feel like I've been asleep

I'm buying things I can't afford

I'm on a high diving board

Oh it's you that's keeping me dry

Xanax and wine

I'm going nowhere

Where I am it is a lot of fun

They're in the desert to dismantle an atomic bomb

I watch 'em shadow box

Check the stocks, I'm in detox

Want the lot of what you've got

If what you've got can make this stop

All I want is a picture of you

All I want is to get right next to you

All I want is your picture in a locket

Your face in my pocket

I take a pill to stop it

Take me, save me from myself

I know that you've been good to me

Now I need you not to be

Wake me, I feel like I've been asleep

Try not to look so bored

You're buying things you can't afford

I got yours and I know you want mine

Xanax and wine

Don't you worry 'bout your mind

Thing is I worry all the time

Don't you worry you'll be fine

You should worry about the day

That the pain it goes away

You know I miss mine sometimes

There is no fiction

That will truly fit the situation

I'm documenting every detail

Every conversation

I'm not used to talking to somebody in their body

It's somebody in a body, it's somebody in a body

In a body there's somebody

Somebody in a body

Somebody, somebody, somebody

It's somebody... in a body

Somebody... in a body

It's somebody... in a body

There's somebody...
