Lyrics

American Junkie
(Rice)

Go ahead replace me
With whatever I see staring back at me
It’s never been my strong suit
To see much past the pursuit

The ends always justify my means
That’s how it goes when you’re apart of the machine
Don’t waste any of your considering
Because it’s taking over everything
Yeah it’s taking over everything

‘Cuz My needs
They got no ceiling
I got no time
For any other feeling

Just let the flashbulbs help me to breath
While the blue tint screen tells me what to believe
Don’t you know I’m free!
At least, that’s what they tell me

Go ahead erase me
Light up my veins til nothing remains
Get lost in the sweet embrace
The bittersweet taste of settling
But there is no relief to the sound
Of this car crash or anything else
In this town

So we cling to the words
From the first lips or rescue ships
Who say that we’ve been heard


‘Cuz My needs
They got no ceiling
I got no time
For any other feeling

Just let the flashbulbs help me to breath
While the blue tint screen tells me what to believe
Don’t you know I’m free!
At least, that’s what they tell me
‘Cuz my needs
They got no ceiling
And I got no time
No time for you!
