lyrics

Turning my tricks in the back of a Chevrolet
Chemical kiss like the snap of a negligee
Needles and pins up my spine, then I hit the floor
Sucking on sin, out of line and I want some more
Now I'm breaking the limits way out on a razor's edge
And I promised myself I'm not stopping 'till I'm dead

I'm craving new sensations
I want the perfect high
I'm searching for salvation
There's nothing I won't try
And life is never easy
Sometimes I get it wrong
But if it doesn't kill me
It only makes me strong
And I'm far from oblivion

If I should live to a speed freak of 85
Platinum ribs and a heartbeat that's synthesised
The loners and stoners all wrapped up in diapers
Will follow me and claim me as their p-p-p-p-p-pied piper
So I'll lead them to the river and count them as they drown
(one by one)
With the keys to the city and a K-Hole in my crown

Still craving new sensations
I want the perfect high
I'm searching for salvation
There's nothing I won't try
And life is never easy
Sometimes I get it wrong
But if it doesn't kill me
It only makes me strong
And I'm far from oblivion

And I'm far from oblivion

In another time
In another place
In another zone
In another space
I'm heading up the front line
Into oblivion

If I should live to a speed freak of 85
Platinum ribs and a heartbeat that's synthesised
I'll still be chasing
The one, undisputed, motherfucking high

I'm craving new sensations
I want the perfect high
I'm searching for salvation
There's nothing I won't try
And life is never easy
Sometimes I get it wrong
But if it doesn't kill me
It only makes me strong

I'm craving new sensations
I want the perfect high
I'm searching for salvation
There's nothing I won't try
Perpetually jaded
Emotionally numb
The novelty has faded
I'm fucked and I am young
And I'm far from oblivion, far from oblivion, far from oblivion
