The Manimals - Cause of Death Lyrics




I've been lost
Lips around a tailpipe, sucking up exhaust
But I wanna just breathe, breathe deep
You know sometimes this city brings me to my knees
I wonder if the day will come when the party's done
And we'll all go back to where we're from

My head aches
Realizing my heart is always set to break
Has this hangover lifted yet?
All of this nostalgia hinges on regret
Those moments when joy and pain start to feel the same
And there's no one left to take the blame

You wanna be a superstar?
That cocaine heart won't get you far
Another case of death by guitar
You gotta save your soul
It's only rock 'n' roll
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh

Bathed in white
Writing down my vitals, seeking signs of life
I swear I was made for more
Than finding new rock bottom, plastered to the floor
But you know, the doctors don't think I'm insane
And my boyfriend thinks I'm playing games

You wanna be a superstar?
That cocaine heart won't get you far
Another case of death by guitar
You gotta save your soul
It's only rock 'n' roll
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh

These fresh eyes
Looking like they've never even seen the sky
Like some aperture opened wide
Stockings on the pavement, shocked that I survived
So this is what it's like to live inside the time
That you'll remember all your life

The anesthetic's wearing thin
You're feeling everything
The needles and the pins
Devastation and surprise
That's being alive

So honey, whatcha running from?
Don't you know who you become?
It's in the pounding of the drums
A beat that makes you whole
Come on and lose control
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh

You wanna be a superstar?
That cocaine heart won't get you far
Another case of death by guitar
You gotta save your soul
It's only rock 'n' roll
You wanna be a superstar?
That cocaine heart won't get you far
Another case of death by guitar
You gotta save your soul
It's only rock 'n' roll
Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh
