Fried my brain before my time.
Looked around at all the beautiful people.
And then my arm turned red…
And all I saw was my blood just rush away.
Hid the needle with a smiling face.
Going down just to find my mind…
To lose it in a pile of waste.
Went on down to a merry-go-round.
Chased myself into a vertical hideaway.
And then I fell to the ground.
Someone, please, please,
Take me back to Mary’s house…
To push it with a needle again
Don’t tell my momma…
She was my only friend
Let me out…
I want out of here.
I refuse to break my hands again.
My best friend is an emergency.
And its Mary’s fault..
That’s what she said.
Plenty of nights of knotting pain.
Take a drink and help me anyone.
Oh I have lost all shame.
Was it fun?
Who will take me back to Mary’s house?
To push it with a needle again.
Don’t tell my momma..
She wouldn’t understand.
Let me out…
I want out of here.
I refuse to break my hands again.
My best friend is an emergency.
And its Mary’s fault…
That’s what she said.
I am Mary’s house.
I beg you to stay.
I am Mary’s house.
I beg you to stay.
I am Mary’s house.
I beg you to stay.
