The Needle Lyrics

WE HAD IT ALL SO EASY,
YOU SHOT IT UP AND SHOT IT DOWN.
ALMOST PULLED IT OFF, BUT IT PULLED YOU IN
- SO WHO'S TO BLAME - FOR THE
WEIGHTS YOU HUNG AROUND YOUR NECK?
THERE WAS A TIME BEFORE WE
CANONIZED THE TRAINWRECK.
JUST SHOW UP FOR THE SOUNDCHECK.
IN A DARK ROOM WHERE YOUR WEEKS
THEY PASS LIKE SECONDS.
DIGGING THAT GRAVE FOR ALL THESE YEARS,
WHAT MAKES IT A TRAGEDY NOW
THAT YOU HIT THE BOTTOM, FORCED OUT
THE ONES THAT COULD HAVE HELPED?
THIS NEEDLE MADE A LIAR OF YOU.
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU'RE STICKING IT TO
BUT YOURSELF?
WE HAD IT ALL SO EASY
YOU SHOT IT UP AND DOWN
LIKE A BODY IN A CASKET
UNFAMILIAR AND DEFLATED
THIS DISTORTION OF SOMEONE THAT I ONCE KNEW
THE LAST AND ONLY WAY I'LL REMEMBER YOU.
