Every couple of years now The doctor says I'm sick Pulls out a brand-new bag of tricks And then they lay it on me Well, at first, it was my brain Then a skeleton in pain And I don't like to complain But I'm saying, "Sorry"
When I met you, I thought I was damaged goods Had a ****ed up childhood And there's poison in my brain and in my blood
If you knew it was the end of the world Could you love me like a child? Could you hold me in the dark? If we knew it was the end of the world Would you like to stay a while? Would you leave when it gets hard?
So, I ran into the clinic And I asked to see the man With his white coat and his stethoscope Like a snake around his hand And I told him I'm not bitter 'Cause I finally found a lover Who is better for my liver And now I'll finally recover
When I met him, I thought I was damaged goods From a real bad neighborhood So we wrestled in the mud And I told him he could stay right where he stood But I don't know if he should 'Cause once my god destroys the flesh, then there's the flood
If you knew it was the end of the world Could you love me like a child? Could you hold me in the dark? If we knew it was the end of the world Would you like to stay a while? Maybe we could build an ark
We could sail on broken driftwood Through the sopping wet terrain And count the buildings and the bodies Getting swallowed by the rain And in the water, there's the doctor Who didn't listen to my claim Oh, what a shame He's circling the drain
When I met you, I said I would never die But the joke was always mine 'Cause I'm racing against time And I know it's not the end of the world But could you pick me up at 8? 'Cause my treatment starts today
