It's about time that I came clean with you
I'm no longer fine, I'm no longer running smooth
I thought that I'd found myself onto something new
Just one more line I repeat over and over again
'Til I'm blue in the face with a choking regret
As I talk in circles 'round you on my bed
Can't say I blamed you one bit when you kept it all inside
When you left that night
It's about time that you got sick of me
No longer fun and so far from interesting
I thought that I found me a cure for feeling old
Just one more line to keep me sleeping loudly and cold
In disgrace with a shameful regret
As I speak in tongues to myself in my bed
Can't say I blamed you one bit when you kept it all inside
When you left that night
And all that followed fell like mercury to hell
Somehow we lost our heads for the last time
And all that followed fell like mercury to hell
Somehow we lost our heads for the last time
And I don't dream since I quit sleeping
No I haven't slept since I met you
And you can't breathe without coughing at daytime
Neither can I so what do you say?
Your coffin or mine?
I'm no longer fine, I'm no longer running smooth
I thought that I'd found myself onto something new
Just one more line I repeat over and over again
'Til I'm blue in the face with a choking regret
As I talk in circles 'round you on my bed
Can't say I blamed you one bit when you kept it all inside
When you left that night
It's about time that you got sick of me
No longer fun and so far from interesting
I thought that I found me a cure for feeling old
Just one more line to keep me sleeping loudly and cold
In disgrace with a shameful regret
As I speak in tongues to myself in my bed
Can't say I blamed you one bit when you kept it all inside
When you left that night
And all that followed fell like mercury to hell
Somehow we lost our heads for the last time
And all that followed fell like mercury to hell
Somehow we lost our heads for the last time
And I don't dream since I quit sleeping
No I haven't slept since I met you
And you can't breathe without coughing at daytime
Neither can I so what do you say?
Your coffin or mine?

"It's about time that you got sick of me
No longer fun and so far from interesting"
It's not the drug that got "far from interesting", it's Matt, for that girl. Drugs usually don't get sick of you.
Besides, both verses end with talking to someone, who left. Do drugs leave? No.
"And you can't breathe without coughing at daytime, and neither can I"
This is the only line that I can't explain, how it fits into my theory. But I can totally relate to this, cause I'm in a really similar situation, like severing a wicked hand. And i cantotally relate to these lyrics. It's brilliant.
"Just one more line I repeat over and over again" - this could be seen as line of coke but I think he means line "I love you" which he keeps telling to a girl but the girl (who may be living with him?) decides that she doesn't love him and leaves him and he regrets it... The outro would be about the same feeling, shame and sadness home alone and at the end it might be really meant like a joke (your coffin or mine) - after we both die and you finally start loving me we'll meet there? just my thoughts
I love how crooked and broken Matt's voice sounds in this song. Makes it more believable. Like he's going through a rough time and seriously sounding like he is. Awesome.
Just one more line (lines in a song)
Cure for feeling old (young people loving and respecting you for your music)
No longer fun (always on the road or working, never having time for anything else)
I repeat over and over again (lines in a song often repeat)
I know this song is about coke, but there are definitely other ways of looking at it and to me this is a good one.
