[American Aquarium - Burn.flicker.die lyrics]
Dollar bill prescriptions in
The bathroom stall
Red headed women and alcohol
Say it ain't so, say it ain't last call
A whiskey on the rocks and Adderall
A whiskey on the rocks and Adderall
We're no different than the neon lights
When you turn us on we stay up all night
We do what we can, we put up a fight
Then we burn too long, we flicker and die
It's nights like these that
The drugs don't work
It's gettin' in the way instead
Of pickin' me up
I wish my addictions didn't mean so much
But we all can't be born
With that kind of luck
You can try but you won't
Fix what's wrong with me
Every night I'm my own worst enemy
I'll find a way to quit when they bury me
'Cause, I can't turn down the
Drinks when they're free
No you can't turn down when
The drinks are for free
We're no different than the neon lights
When you turn us on we stay up all night
We do what we can, we put up a fight
Then we burn too long, we flicker and die
Every girl in that bar
Looked like nineteen sixty-five
With her sailor tattoos and
Her drawn-out eyes
Every now then she still crosses my mind
And by every now and then I
Mean most of the time
By every now and then I mean all of the time
We're no different than the neon lights
When you turn us on we stay up all night
We do what we can, we put up a fight
Then we burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
The bathroom stall
Red headed women and alcohol
Say it ain't so, say it ain't last call
A whiskey on the rocks and Adderall
A whiskey on the rocks and Adderall
We're no different than the neon lights
When you turn us on we stay up all night
We do what we can, we put up a fight
Then we burn too long, we flicker and die
It's nights like these that
The drugs don't work
It's gettin' in the way instead
Of pickin' me up
I wish my addictions didn't mean so much
But we all can't be born
With that kind of luck
You can try but you won't
Fix what's wrong with me
Every night I'm my own worst enemy
I'll find a way to quit when they bury me
'Cause, I can't turn down the
Drinks when they're free
No you can't turn down when
The drinks are for free
We're no different than the neon lights
When you turn us on we stay up all night
We do what we can, we put up a fight
Then we burn too long, we flicker and die
Every girl in that bar
Looked like nineteen sixty-five
With her sailor tattoos and
Her drawn-out eyes
Every now then she still crosses my mind
And by every now and then I
Mean most of the time
By every now and then I mean all of the time
We're no different than the neon lights
When you turn us on we stay up all night
We do what we can, we put up a fight
Then we burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
We burn too long, we flicker and die
