lyrics

take me to the place
where the screamers scream and the lovers make love
‘cause I can’t tell no more
if we are lovers or we are the former

if you want to move on
just go away and do it quickly
but leave me with my drugs
at least when they’re gone it doesn’t feel like you’re missing

my girl’s a paradox
just when she’s high she does find me appealin’
cause I don’t know no more
if my baby loves me or if she’s just teasin’

my mind doesn’t feel right, she says
as she takes a hit from my dream-eater
she doesn’t seem to mind
the purple bird hanging from the ceiling

‘cause I
I can’t take it no more
this girl
she’s taking all of my stuff
free
is the price she arranged for herself
and meanwhile
that bird’s inviting his friends

tell me, Purple Bird
if my mind’s so hazy why can I see you clearly
you should come over here
the ceiling’s not so cozy when your body’s real

my girl don’t listen no more
the last hit she took has left her dreaming
you should come over here
you don’t have to be real to be my meal

‘cause I
I can’t take it no more
this girl
she’s taking all of my stuff
free
is the price she arranged for herself
and meanwhile
that bird’s inviting his friends
