Midnight pills in a Red Label haze
Absolut burns as the city decays
Xanax whispers just one more try
Ritalin screams you'll never get high

Voices crawl through the static on my phone
Pick a side the grave or the throne
Streetlights flicker like Judgment Day
But the saints here are dealers and heaven's a stray

I'm a ghost in the liquor aisle
Shadows cling where the spirits compile
The doctor said swallow your pride
Now I'm breathing the dust of my suicide

Bye bye to the man I was
Drowning in the neon buzz
Red Label tears vodka veins
Xanax skies and Ritalin rain

Bye bye to the prayers I fake
God's just a shadow in my wake
Forgive me Father I'm still alive
But the ghosts in my glass never die

Pavement cracks mirror my spine
Swallowed the Moon with a 90s wine
The angel who caught me she's a Xanax queen
Her wings are clipped and her halo's obscene

We danced on the edge where the freeway hums
Till the Ritalin crashed and the numbness won
One last call the bartender lies
The clock's stuck on goodbye goodbye goodbye

The pills scoffed at my napkin will
Cocaine rain can't mend what you kill
A flicker in the static a sidewalk song
The hospital gown's a shroud I've worn too long

I'm a ghost in the liquor aisle
Shadows cling where the spirits compile
The doctor said swallow your pride
Now I'm breathing the dust of my suicide

Bye bye to the man I was
Drowning in the neon buzz
Red Label tears vodka veins
Xanax skies and Ritalin rain

Bye bye to the prayers I fake
God's just a shadow in my wake
Forgive me Father I'm still alive
But the ghosts in my glass never die

The neon's bleeding
Bye bye bye
My soul's not breathing
On both sides

On the roadsides where the truth collides
Red Label drips Absolut confides
Xanax dreams in twilight's tide
Ritalin's grin a race I can't win

The symphony of sins roars from within
Red Label hums Absolut's refrain
Xanax cries through fractured veins
Ritalin's curse the price of sin
This symphony of sin won't let me win
