Lyrics Mark Lanegan

Mark Lanegan

Ketamine

Lord, give me some ketamine so I can feel alright

To plant my flag on distant shores and take me through the night

'Cause if I had a razor, I would cut you everywhere

Then I'd walk the whole of Earth with a thousand mile stare

All I got was awful news in every letter I was sent

And all my life my spirit child was broken and was bent

Now, if I was a billionaire, no, it wouldn't make me blue

I'd build myself a bullet train and run straight over you

Yeah Lord, give me some ketamine so I can feel alright

To hide my true dark nature and to keep it out of sight

'Cause if I had a rifle, I'd shoot straight up in the air

And watch you fall back down to Earth with a wild-eye graveyard stare
