It can strike the very poorest or a rich man
It will haunt an atheist as any christian
So many bodies ache & groan in dire needing
& pretty soon there is this habit that needs feeding
It's a dent in the skin, you're sliding it in
That's how it go go goes
It never seemed nice it's a difficult vice
That's how you throw throw throw
Your life away, I've got you today
Tomorrow I don't know no no
It's hard to get whole, when you're losing your soul
The first attempt it might be caused by pain & need
Or just a little bit of morbid curiosity
The boredom strikes or else it's loneliness & heartache
& soon enough you're gonna wish you never started
It's a dent in the skin, you're sliding it in
That's how it go go goes
It never seemed nice it's a difficult vice
That's how you throw throw throw
Your life away, I've got you today
Tomorrow I don't know no so
So hard to get whole, when you're losing your soul
Scabby sores & rotten abscesses be itchin'
& now there are no metal spoons up in the kitchen
When every minute's crawling by & full of hatred
& you're forced out on the corner for a paycheck
I'll find you, I'll take you away!
Don't Die Yet, Don't Die Today!
Die Today? Don't Die Today!
Die Today? Don't Die Today!
