CHEMICALS

from STRIKE TWO​!​! by Fourth Strike Records

written and performed by NO RISK (no-risk.bandcamp.com)

my heart isn’t working
in the way that i’d like
and it’s keeping me up
every single night
i know the feeling
i know i’m not fine
yeah, i know the feeling
and i know I'm not fine
and every single time
i think i’m over this shit
every tiny little thing
just reminds me of it
i just need to sleep
yeah, i just need some rest
but the thorn in my side
is like a sword through the chest

i’m gonna take those pills
and get the chemicals
to make my brain
believe that i am happy
gonna take those chemicals
they’re the ones i need

so what? if i stay sad
for the rest of my life
i’m gonna stay up
for the rest of the night
and tomorrow is a day
that’ll just pass me by
and i’ll do it all again
til the day that i die
and what? if this is not
a perfect solution
i’m gonna fix this bloodstream
with some helpful pollution
and i hope that that helps
cause i’m out of ideas
and i hope that that helps
cause i’m out of ideas

tomorrow is a day
that’ll just pass me by
and i’ll do it all again
til the day that i die
and i’ll do it all again
til the day that i die
and i’ll do it all again
til the day that i die
