Rise Against - Methadone lyrics

Love like a needle full of methadone Potent but not real, left you wanting more Lipstick track marks bleeding wet Like Montagues and Capulets For us child the stars refuse to shine Oh why for us, child, do the stars refuse to shine? Somewhere strung out on the lam We wound up back here again Like unstable chemicals Combining only to explode What will it take for you to notice? I am a heart on fire, and all the world's a fuse So don’t get close Trouble and the worth Am I better off on my own? Contaminated, quarantined then left alone A shipment refused, address unknown A damaged goods they soon forget The choking dust that we got left For us all, the stars refuse to shine Tap the vein and light the match We burn like stars before the crash But for you there’s still a chance Just let go What will it take for you to notice? I am a heart on fire, and all the world's a fuse So don’t get close Trouble and the worth I’m better off on my own On my own Now there’s nowhere to run And yeah there’s nowhere to hide There’s nothing under the sun We haven’t already tried What will it take for you to notice? I am a hand grenade, pin already pulled so don’t let go As we chase the sun my shadow slows us down And without me along, you’re better off and I know You’re better off and I know And I know
