Lyrics

Opiates

Written by: Nathan Bishop (MacDonald)

Fire all your cannons, fire em till they're done/
How strong would you be without your guns?/
Fire all your venom, fire it from your tongue/
Cash the cheque that made you eat your young/

Chorus:
I'll take my Opiates,
Cause I'm not copin yet/
take them cause they help me to forget/
I might not know it yet/
My eyes don't show it yet/
But I'll take the final step into the depths, of loss of consciousness/

Fire all your missles/
When will it be done?/
Contracts in exchange for all your sons/
Keep the fear train runnin/
Yellow orange and red/
Just keep spendin' or we'll end up dead

Chorus:

I'll take my Opiates,
Cause I'm not copin yet/
take them cause they help me to forget/
I might not know it yet/
My eyes don't show it yet/
But I'll take the final step into the depths, of loss of consciousness/

Bridge:
Oh no you know what you know,
you really played your part/
Cynically, they'll label me another bleedin' heart/
They'll tuck you in/
They'll suck you in/
They'll sell you every sin/
Keep you from action with every distraction/
