Album: No Lunch

you're doing it all for time
one more day as the weeks go by
you're doing it all for kicks
but he fixed that when you were six

gave you a car and therapy
golden cage of apathy

to lose, too loose
to use and lose abuse
to lose, too loose
to use and lose confused

you're doing it all for spite
he did you so wrong and you couldn't write
you're doing it all on tape
things you can't rewind and you can't erase

some call it art and make it clean
you're not so smart you're no machine

to lose, too loose
to use and lose abuse
to lose, too loose
to use and lose confused

protection, rejection
they got you going down, down...

you're doing it all for hate
in a minute dance or an hour date
you're doing it all for me
well I can see you but you can't see me

remember back just before you left
when your picture made every fashion spread
and the things that stayed inside my mind
well, you didn't drop dead and you won't drop dime

to lose, too loose
to use and lose abuse
to lose, too loose
to use and lose confused

in a houses on couches...

to lose, too loose
to use and lose abuse
to lose, too loose
to use and lose confused

they'll take you, they'll break you
they got you going down, going down
going down, going down...
going down...
