down on the pharmacy

Singer: blind melon

you're fooling no one but yourself

you finally made it to your own hell

it took the bottom to shake your will

you forgot to love and forgot to feel

they locked you up

you're scratching the ceiling

you're down on your knees

you're praying for something

you're looking real high

what do you do and where do you go now

i know a place for you to hide

the past catches up with you one day

and stares you in the face and takes you away

the blindness always seems to win

and one day you will wake up with nothing to give

you've been strung out for awhile

i know that you know that we know you know

you're living a story that's already been made

you're burning the pages that you keep fading

the more you keep hiding the more we keep fighting

the less you keep trying

the sooner you're dying

the more that you give up

the more that you give back

the cleaner that you get

the sweeter that life is

the sooner that you know

the sooner the shit flows

ya got to give it up now

ya gotta let it rest

the time is right now

you know it's right

it's time that you tear down that wall inside

the past catches up with you one day

and stares you in the face and takes you away

the blindness always seems to win

and one day you will wake up with nothing to give

please forgive me

please forgive me. you never think it will ever turn out the way it does when you start out

the past catches up with you one day

and stares you in the face and takes you away

the blindness always seems to win

and one day you will wake up with nothing to give

lah

lah

lah-da

lah-da-da

please forgive me

please forgive me

please forgive me.
