PAY THE PRICE

Stephen Brown

Burn, baby, burn, the devil told me
Wake up surrounded but still lonely Emotions running low, refuel me
Addicted to the pain, take over slowly Ghosts of the past, too haunting
Faces of my peers, they're haunting God, are you there? Please save me
Forever stuck, out of luck purgatory I wish we could last like our names
But we were wild as beats untamed We point ten fingers around the room
When we're really to blame And each time, I say no more
But I do the same, the same No mirrors in this place
There's no point, they'll all break The same way I did
Under the spell of addiction and trauma I'm so sick of the drama
My life is full of commas A whole list of problems
Algebra, I failed So I don't know the way to solve them
I'm playing with chalk Drawing my pose for the reaper
Because life is expensive But death is cheaper
Burn, baby, burn, the devil told me Wake up surrounded but still lonely
Emotions running low, refuel me Addicted to the pain, take over slowly
Ghosts of the past, too haunting Faces of my peers, they're haunting
God, are you there? Please save me
Forever stuck, and it of luck, purgatory I know, I know
I need to get better I need to get clean up off of my drugs
I know, I know It's been over a year
Since I popped a pill and called up the plug But I'm still smoking gas and sipping Hennessy
And sometimes, even with my glasses It's hard to see
The good inside of myself I'd be lying if I said I did it by myself
Didn't do that, I called on the lord
Burn, baby, burn, the devil told me Wake up surrounded but still lonely
Emotions running low, refuel me Addicted to the pain, take over slowly
Ghosts of the past, too haunting Faces of my peers, they're haunting
God, are you there? Please save me Forever stuck, out of luck, purgatory
Sometimes, I wish I could share these moments With my friends I lost
God, can you take them to heaven
Burn, baby, burn, the devil told me Wake up surrounded but still lonely
Emotions running low, refuel me Addicted to the pain, take over slowly
Ghosts of the past, too haunting Faces of my peers, they're haunting
God, are you there? Please save me Forever stuck, out of luck, purgatory
