Lyrics The Classic Crime

The Classic Crime

God & Drugs

I’ve scraped the glass for crumbs and asked the mirror for some truth

I’ve loaded my body with chemicals it was no use

Cause retribution’s coming for the years of this abuse

And I can’t get away and still I can’t get close enough to you

(oh oh oh oh)

You won’t go away, but every hit is just a taste

Something scares me in this place, I self destruct for days

It’s a constant reminder of what I can and cannot have

The smell, the taste it’s all just fake, the truth is what I lack

So I will keep on running and keep my head above the ground

And I will look for you in places you cannot be found

(oh oh oh oh)

You won’t go away, but every hit is just a taste

Something scares me in this place, I self destruct for days

You won’t go away, but every hit is just a taste

Of all the things I need to face, but it's all so fake

“It’s okay,” a voice says

“We all look elsewhere.”

It’s true that I look elsewhere for you

you won't go away, you won't go away (III)

You won't go away, but every hit is just a taste

something scares me in this place, I self destruct for days

You won't go away, but every hit is just a taste

Of all the things I need to face, but it's all so fake
