lyrics

So in the middle of the dark night,
splitting hairs with no friends there,
your thoughts attack you in a new way
write one song for 1000 days
the enigma like an enema from a huge future you
sudden-grabs me by the Jeans
while chanting "PAY PAY PAY!!"

o how I'd sink how the future seems w this gun in my throat

O Billie's paying for her sins now
all delusions like a black cloud
she struck out down in Dallas,
dragged her ragged soul to L.A.
where her dreams just became more mean
while her visions of the future screamed,
"I'd love to say I knew you,
but I don't think you'll make it thru okay"

so Billie built a new life with a gun at her nose
and she sings so clearly, and she feels so near me

so thru some long endless day of night
Billie's sorting thru the picture scripts
all the old selves put on the shelf,
she hears a voice that finds her unwell
"when you climb to the top of hell yr just going down again,
no food and the rent is shit,
no end not even a dead end

so Billie built a new life with a gun at her nose
and the canvas was painted, and she felt so elated
a moony head and the glare of red
the stench of death but she owns it!
now when she rests she knows she earned it
she'll be free and won't hesitate
