Gaze into her killing jar
I'd sometimes stare for hours
She even poked the holes so I can breathe

She bought the last line
I'm just the worst kind of guy to argue
With what you might find
And for the last night I lie
Could I lie with you?

Alright, give up, get down
It's just the hardest part of living
Alright, she wants it all to come down this time

Lost in the prescription
She's got something else in mind
Check into the hotel Bella Muerte

It gives the weak flight
It gives the blind sight
Until the cops come or by the last light
And for the last night I lie
Could I lie next to you?

Alright, give up, get down
It's just the hardest part of living
Alright, she wants it all to come down this time

Alright, give up, get down
It's just the hardest part of living
Alright, she wants it all to come down this time

Pull the plug
But I'd like to learn your name
And holding on
Well, I hope you do the same
Awww sugar
Slip into this tragedy
You've spun this chamber dry

Alright, give up, get down
It's just the hardest part of living
Alright, she wants it all to come down this time

Alright, give up, get down
It's just the hardest part of living
Alright, she wants it all to come down this time

Pull the plug
But I'd like to learn your name
And holding on
Well, I hope you do the same
Awww sugar

    Yeah I totally agree with it being about using meth. But to me it is more then that, it tells a story. I'll do a line by line.

    "Gaze into her killing jar I'd sometimes stare for hours. She even poked the holes so I can breathe."

    This is my favorite stanza! Awesome analogy. His girlfriend is addicted. And while she is under the control of meth, he is under her control.

    "She bought the last line. I'm just the worst kind. Of guy to argue. With what you might find. And for the last night I lie. Could I lie with you?"

    Right along with it, he is under her influence. He's a guy who has fallen for her and will do anything for her. Even live the life she lives.

    "Alright... Give up. Get down. Its just the hardest part of living. She wants. It all to come down this time."

    It's all about the neverending cycle of meth. The snake eating itself. You get up and it wears off. Then you take another hit. Up! ... then down... you get the picture. But this time on her downer she has become especially destructive.

    It gives the weak flight. It gives the blind sight. Until the cops come. Or by the last light. And for the last night I lie. Could I lie next to you?

    Drugs not only give you a euphoric feeling, (and this definitely depends on how you use it), but it also gives you a glimpse into your future self. Part of the emotion and high that stems from drugs really stems from you. That's why it affects everyone in a different way. You've heard the term high on life? Well, that is true. There is a way you can really find to be naturally high. And let me tell you, its better then a drug.

    The weak (or meek) rise Those who cannot see who they really are now get the glimpse
