American Aquarium - Burn. Flicker. Die lyrics

Dollar bill prescriptions in the bathroom stall Red headed women and alcohol Say it ain't so, say it ain't last call A whiskey on the rocks and Adderall A whiskey on the rocks and Adderall We're no different from the neon lights When you turn us on we stay up all night We do what we can We put up a fight When we burn too long we flicker and die Its night like these that the drugs don't work They just get in the way instead of pickin' me up I wish my addictions didn't mean so much But we all can't be born with that kind of luck You can try but you won't fix what's wrong with me. Every night I'm my own worst enemey. I'll find a way to quit when they bury me Cause I can't turn down the drinks when they're free No you can't turn down the drinks when they're free We're no different from the neon lights When you turn us on we stay up all night We do what we can We put up a fight When we burn to long, we flicker and die Every girl in that bar looked like 1965 With her sailor tattoos and her drawn out eyes Every now and then she still crosses my mind And by every now and then I mean most of the time By every now and then I mean all of the time We're no different from the neon lights When you turn us on we stay up all night We do what we can We put up a fight When we burn too long we flicker and die We're no differet from the neon lights When you turn us on we stay up all night We do what we can We put up a fight When we burn too long we flicker and die We burn too long. We flicker and die. (repeat several times) (end)
