You need more heat
This is a recurring theme
You die in flames in my dreams
'I need to get more sleep'
this is what you always say
Lying in a junkie's way

Finding you turning blue
it's easy to discern the truth
I can see what not to do
One look at you, the dying proof

Pick up your cigarette
Forget What I Said
It's so hard to care what you do
You say 'look at me respectfully'
I can't

Finding you turning blue
it's easy to discern the truth
I can see what not to do
one look at you, the dying proof

If life is a performance
and I am not an actor
am I supposed to lie down and die?
