Verse:
Push it away
Heart cold in the land of gray
Suck it all in
I'm watching them cringe
Damn, what a waste
The boy's got that prescription taste
He's dying away
Look at 'em fade
There has to be another way

Pre-chorus:
The aftermath is devastating
Writing, leave me, medicating
The hating, the horror that haunts my day
If I can get a chance to brush off this decay
Who gives a f***, gimme what I need, another dose

Chorus:
And I stop shaking tonight
Pull myself up off the floor
Kneel down and exercise
Prepare for what's in store
And I stop shaking tonight
Pull myself up off the floor
Kneel down and exercise
I'm resurrecting

Verse:
Lock it away
Beneath the pain, beneath the insane
Take it all in
and I'll take the blame
Pushing the grace
The cancer radiates in her face
You ruined my stay
So I'll destroy the faith
There has to be another way

Pre-chorus:
I'm in the rubble, contemplating
The pills that thrill
Killing, not aiding
The hating, the horror that haunts my day
If I could get another chance
I'd probably throw it away

Who gives a f***, gimme what I need, another dose
I'll resurrect for all to see
And death to those who've forsaken me

Dead man walking, baby

Killin' time, killin' pain, baby
But instead you're killin' me

Back away from the pain 
It's insane and I will throw away
All the things that sting
So back away, it's okay
You're a stain ad now you'll rot away 
It's sickening
