Listen to me jesus
  this disease deceives us
  takes us for a flight
  then shoots us down
  we need some protection from this soul infection
  help us save ourselves before we drown
  fight on fight on
    i cant release myself
  calm the storm that builds inside
  kill off emotions and i'm strung out again
  i cant escape myself
  cuz i've been running all my life
  kill off emotions and i'm sturng out again
    a little hit can take away my fears
  and make me feel a real man
  selling all i have to make me whole
  i can feel the fire
  fueling me now i've lost control
  fight on fight on
    [chorus]
    i'm sick and tired of being sick and fucking tired
  heard the last shot rired walked the high wire
  no desire left now that i accept
  hanging by a rope seen a little bit of hope gotta cope
  this aint no fucking joke
  cuz my next binge with the syringe might do me in
  take me out
  down for the count
  you're living in this chaos that aint what i'm about
  motherfucker
  i see you wasing away
  you look at me and you see the same
  why must we be normal and sane
  why must we live this life of pain
    [chorus]
    i'm just a slave headed for the grave anyway
  i'm just a slave headed for the grave anyway
  i'm just a slave headed for the grave anyway
  i'm just a slave
