Dope Fiend Blues - Mike Ness, Billy Zoom

In a police car I feel so very small

I see my lovers face and I watch her teardrops fall

And I try to figure out where I’d fallen off the track

I sold my soul to the devil and then I stole it back

And in the end, you know a dope fiend ain’t got no friends

And a junkie is a junkie to the bitter end

Hope to die now, cuz you know I’m better off dead

Hey brother, won’t yopu lend me a helping hand?

I tie myself off, shoot it in my veins

I feel like Marlon Brando and I’ve hid another day’s pain

I’m goin' back where it’s safe, I’m goin' back to the womb

I find my mother’s comfort, here in a needle and spoon

And Christmas for a dope fiend ain’t no fun

Waitin' for good times that never seem to come

Goin' out now, gonna get myself a gun

Please stop me, don’t you know I’m on the run?

Aren’t you tired of the detox and the places in the mind?

Aren’t you tired of the misery, aren’t you tired of doing time?

And I try to figure out where I’d fallen off the track

You know I sold my soul to the devil and then I stole it back

I’m a dope fiend, I’m a liar, a cheat and a thief

At my funeral, won’t you bring me a red rose wreath?

Dress in black now, show everyone your grief

Well, I’m gone now, you can all feel relief!
