Text: Otep. Numb And Dumb.
I'm tired of being tired
Sick of being sick
I'm tired of being tired
Sick of being sick
Erase & escape
The meathooks of reality
Erase & escape
The meathooks of reality
Lock the door
Load your guns
& pray for nothing !
(I don't care, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care)
And daddy's shooting smack
And mama's smoking crack
And teacher is a sex addict
And preacher has a porn habit
And sister's such a whore
And my life is a bore
.take your vitamins
.whiten your teeth
.comb your hair
.know when to speak
They say jesus was a masochist
But maybe they said, pacifist...
Sweet goddess of narcotics
On my knees I pray
Just give me one more dose
& make it all go away
Make me completely numb & dumb
(Watch your tone, obey the law,
Know when to bend, believe in god)
I took his wife into my mouth
Like a slice of wedding cake
I went back for extra helpings
& then I clean my plate
Still covered in her yolk
The wet drug of my addiction
I'm nature's little criminal
A selfish crucifixion
Of sweet scarecrow in the sky
You have all the answers
But we will never die
Sweet goddess of narcotics
On my knees I pray
Just give me one more dose
& make it all go away
Make me completely
Numb & dumb
I ran out the front door
The devil's at the backdoor
Whispering to the sea
& above
A black feathered sun
Drunk on teenage meat
I don't care,
I don't care
I don't care,
I don't care
Make me completely numb & dumb
Medicate & sedate
Pass the punishment
I need another fix
Sick of being sick
I'm tired of being tired
Sick of being sick
Erase & escape
The meathooks of reality
Erase & escape
The meathooks of reality
Lock the door
Load your guns
& pray for nothing !
