Very long nights in the park lead to dark nights in hotel rooms cooking heroin on a bent spoon
Very long days with my ex lead to sex and there’s nobody here to stop me so I go for it

Baptism of fire they called me a liar
Yes this is true to protect me from you, 
so please get out my place, take your vase and your mace, you’ll need it on these streets when those people catch up with you

One time thing, you know that it wasn’t 
When it washes in, know it’s got you
Call Talk to Frank, your friend’s not breathing
you see him crawling on the ceiling

She stomps her heels to the bass drum
Sloshed to the gills on dark rum in a dress that fit fifteen years ago 

Know she’s outgrown it and her liver’s grown and they won’t prescribe her valium as a substitute 

She can’t seem to stop destroying herself and her husband left her on the shelf, such a mean bastard

It’s due to drink and the pain she can’t sink when she’s lying in bed with those memories haunting her 

She took her first sip from a bottle at the age of barely 11
No one gave a fuck cos it’s Britain
She fell on to and killed her kitten (meow) 

Do a twelve step programme
Then go buy a gram
It’s the lackadaisical effect 

Tie yourself to the bed?
Drink Merlot instead 
Just get through the day, it won’t kill you 

You wake up on a ward the size of your pores and outpours the grief that won’t leave you

You were destined to be for eternity “crackhead” 
You’re crawling on the ceiling 

One time thing, you know that it wasn’t 
Once you crack, it’s so hard to get back
Call Talk to Frank, your friend’s not breathing (he’s not now)
you see him crawling on the ceiling
