Vodka & Pills (Drinking & Singing)

from Historical Depictions of the Future by Meiosis

lyrics

Stumble through the vomit I left,
I hate you when you do this to me,
I'll do it all over again,
'Cos you, Alcohol... You're my only friend.

Broken. All cuts and bruises,
I hate you when you get temperamental,
I've been with you all today,
You're the one who'll take me away.

And if I cast my mind back to the beginning of the night,
My heart was beating fast and my eyes were wide and bright,
This is the story of a teenaged alcoholic,
living on the edge of his life,

And...

Drinking and singing is all I want to do,
You'll slowly kill me,
But we're going to keep going 'till we're through,
I don't mind dying for you.

So I've got my vodka,
And I've got my pills,
I'm standing on a very high viaduct in the hills,
This won't ever happen again,
I'll die with you my good friend.

Crying, I take a piss on the grass,
And think to myself "This friendship can't last",
I throw the bottle off the bridge,
And walk home laughing myself to a stitch.

Drinking and singing is all I want to do,
You'll slowly kill me,
But we're going to keep going 'till we're through,
I don't mind dying for you.
