Cover art is from The Scream by Edvard Munch.

lyrics

Oh yeah, life’s been getting in my way
Ooh, pretty baby

Keep the hell away from Amarillo
Nothing in that life but the bar scene and the sad nights
And it’s stealing all my friends’ souls slowly in the night life
And they act like everything is always alright

Who’ll remember Drew
I will, I will
Fools, our camera crew

Red hand flashing the cross walk blocked off
A fatal car crash
Ah you had to be high man
And I look to the driver’s seat
And I’m watching him watching me

[Chorus]
Ooh, despair
I should have it so much better
Would you even care
If you had it better

Sneaking up through my car engine and life’s telling the e-light, “Come on.”
I get another phone call some close friend has died
And I get lonely, lonely, lonely
I call up some old ex and say my love’s come back to life

Crushing coke in the back bar bathroom
I have a vision
I’m five and hugging my mom again
Yeah I know that I’m losing it
Only feeling like getting lit

[Chorus x2]
