Lyrics and translation
Original
No, I don't go to parties
I'm California sober and I'm lame
I'm too sad for that setting
I'm boring and I wouldn't change a
Thing, thing
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
My speech is slurring lately
I know it's a slippery slope
I thought it would cure me
I thought it would maybe help me cope
But nope, I'm addicted to feeling numb
I choke up when I think of the things I could've
Done (done), done
Instead, oh-oh-oh
I crave that rise of dopamine
So much I may throw my brain away
Just to get so high, I feel
Nothin' again 'til I pop another the next day
And let the thoughts all fade away
My memory is leaving me
I'll fade to nothing at this rate
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Not a social smoker
Not a social person, first of all
Not a happy stoner
I lay there like a five-foot tall rag-
Doll (doll), doll
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
I know that I'll regret it (I'll regret it)
Hours every day just playing dead
Morning resurrected (resurrected)
A zombie rising from a dirty bed
And yet, I ignore my declining health
My self is an unrecognizable
Silhouette (silhouette), silhouette
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
I crave that rise of dopamine
So much I may throw my brain away
Just to get so high, I feel
Nothin' again 'til I pop another the next day
And let the thoughts all fade away
My memory is leaving me
I'll fade to nothing at this rate
Oh-oh-oh (too late to stop, I'm really not sure how)
Oh-oh-oh (give it a shot, you're all that you've got now)
Oh-oh-oh (too late to stop, I'm really not sure how)
Oh-oh-oh (give it a shot, you're all that you've got)
That leaf might as well be pomegranate seeds
The past years were hell, now it's purgatory
With nobody to blame this time except for me
But I crave that rise of dopamine
So much I may throw my brain away
Just to get so high, I feel
Nothin' again 'til I pop another the next day
And let the thoughts all fade away
My memory is leaving me
I'll fade to nothing at this rate
Fade to nothing at this rate
