Alice in Chains
Chemical Addiction
[Verse 1]
I was only 15, standout on the ave
You're chasing a pipe dream, a luxury I never had
Living my life in the box, or sleeping in the trash
Taking girls for the things I need, like booze, drugs and ass
[Chorus]
Get stoned, daily survival in the war zone
Yeah our teens meant everything, alright
Half rack, smoking out till it's all black
Death trap, watch me going blind, oh
[Post-Chorus]
I don't care what you say, I
Or what you do
Chemical addiction is
Getting rid of you
So high, colors turn to sound
Goodbye, let us in and we'll lay you in the ground
[Verse 2]
Jonesin' on the floor, take another drag
Bought a bunch of valiums from a skinny broadway fag
I don't know much about heroin but I, I wanna try
Just about everything once before I die
[Chorus]
Get stoned, daily survival in the war zone
Yeah our teens meant everything, alright
Half rack, smoking out till it's all black
Death trap, watch me going blind, oh
[Post-Chorus]
I don't care what you say, I
Or what you do
Chemical addiction is
Getting rid of you
So high, colors turn to sound
Goodbye, let us in and we'll lay you in the ground
Now Jerry, do me like this
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Get stoned, daily survival in the war zone
Yeah our teens meant everything, alright
Half rack, smoking out till it's all black
Death trap, watch me going blind, oh
