It used to hurt but now it don't, it used to hurt but now it only just tickles, it just tickles. It used to hurt but now it don't, it used to hurt but now it only just tickles, it just tickles.
I was getting up to leave
when you hit the sativa and told me to stay.
And now you want me to believe
that you wasn't with Steve out just the other day.
And that your sad and mental,
and that you need your space,
and that my heavy metal
is the final straw that's been driving you away.
I was walking down the beach
when I made up the speech that I was gonna say
When I met you at Cassis
after being out of reach for a couple days.
But you never showed up
You never showed your face.
And you've been known to flake out
And I saw it coming a mile away
It used to hurt but now it don't, it used to hurt but now it only just tickles, it just tickles
It used to hurt but now it don't, it used to hurt but now it only just tickles, it just tickles.

Take some time to decide on
how you gonna make it
you decide you deserve but
how they gonna take it?
Sunshine sky suicidal
Sunshine sky suicidal
There's a line in the bible
I can give or take it
left your car there to idle
but how you gonna make it home tonight?
Sunshine sky suicidal
Sunshine sky suicidal
And you really know I
have loved you more than I
have loved anyone
but now I throw myself
from your arms...

These five fingers attached to me
they capture everything in my sight
they wrap around anything that I need
I want it, I just reach out
Oh well, lol, lol, forget about it
Oh well, lol, lol, forget about now
I'm just kidding.
These five things you said to me
have captioned every thought in my mind
the fasten to the lobe in my brain
all that just to be near me?

You say it's over but it's
far from over here in paradise
What they sold you isn't
what they told you in the neon light
Are you ever coming,
are you ever coming down?
Everyone is floating,
all we ever do is drown down now.
Hold me close,
don't let me overdose
When I'm already dead on the inside.
Come be a ghost here on the
forgotten coast with me tonight.
You say you're over it but
you're getting closer with the parasite.
And in the evening just to
kill the feeling of lonely night
Am I ever coming,
am I ever coming down?
Everyone is floating,
all we ever do is drown down now
Hold me close
don't let me overdose
when I'm already dead on the inside
I'll be a ghost here on the
forgotten coast
will it be lonely without me on the ride?
hold me close,
don't let me
overdose without you
