Panic! at the Disco – Nails For Breakfast, Tacks For Snacks Lyrics 14 years ago
I totally understand this song, differently then most. My Mom is an alcoholic as well as addicted to drugs, illegal as well as RX. This song reminds me of the nights I had to care for my autistic six year old sister, while my mother's slurred ramblings woke her. The nights where I had to pick my mother up off the floor. The nights where my mother would cut herself & cry that no one loves her. The nights where I had to hide the vodka bottle, despite being hit & screamed at for it, for she would finish the entire 250ml bottle in a couple hours. After "giving up the ghost" of vodka, she turned to coke & heroine, as well as xanax, soma, vicodin, & more. So I may not know the books you are talking about, or the exact story behind this song... but I know what this song means to me. I have lived through these lyrics... I survived. I enjoy this song, because it has made me feel strong enough to detach myself from my mother, & leave her in the past... Anyway, just wanted to put that out there for people who think this song is different then an alcohol or drug user.
