Another night
Leaves up in my head
Leaves me in my dread
Recycling the bad dreams
So can you tell me how
To make it stop short of being dead?
Mouth is hanging open, shot eyes are full of lead
I just wanna let you know
Sometimes I don't let it show

I need better chemicals, I know
Cause nothing helps anymore, oh no
Need better chemicals to show
You that I can be more, oh oh

Another me
Free from hurting you
But I guess that's what I do
I'm stuck here in this complex
And I can't
Separate the side of me that's
Putting up the walls
I don't wanna lie
So I just don't pick up the call
I wish I could let you know
Sometimes I don't let it show

Break me down and cut me up
This can never be enough
Break me down and cut me up
My soul, my bones

Break me down and cut me up
This can never be enough
Break me down and cut me up
My curse, my hope

    My Interpretation

    I think this is about someone who is so lost in life and in their present relationship that they feel like the pain they're in is like a bad trip or drug. They need a release from it all at this point & desperately are seeking answers.
