Making Chemistry - Too Empty

Using guns used to be so dangerous
But then you grow up just to realise the range of plain distrust
That exists in the system, their honesty is seldom
They pretend that you're productive while you're doing what they tell them
They charge you for advice when you don't feel at your best
They always play it nice until the answer isn't yes
And now I'm acting crazy it's the pain that's left to numb
Their treatments are too lazy so we medicate for fun
Marriage is a gimmick, like love it never lasts
Based on virtues years ago to trap the middle class
While the doctor just prescribed my friend with ecstasy and coke
Regulations are too strict these days so purity's a joke
The only reason life would ever ask me on a date
Is to fuck me good for seven days and leave me on the eighth
Quite possible that life is just some kind of mental hospital
'Cause sanity's not washable, it goes and it's unstoppable
You think I'm joking
But I got nowhere to hide
I'm too empty inside
I'm too empty inside
You think I'm joking
But I got nowhere to hide
I'm too empty inside
I'm too empty inside
I check back into sanity but vacancy is rare
Always full capacity just when I need repairs
For multiple disorders that bring drugs through the borders
Of my brain, from weed and pain disguised in blood and water
What attitude's destructive when you know it could be worse
There's always someone else who thinks they're badder
Someone must come first
There's a lad inside a metal cell screaming at the steel
Can someone just convince me that the voices are not real
More or less you are the good guy and that becomes your label
Out of character for a second now they think that you're unstable
If I recall you finish last if you play it nice
But when it was the opposite, disguised then as advise
Attention's so addictive so I buy it all in bulk
But if it's not restricted then you feel like the hulk
Overdose or something close, validation man
The high is great when taken straight
How's this stuff not banned?
You think I'm joking
But I got nowhere to hide
I'm too empty inside
I'm too empty inside
You think I'm joking
But I got nowhere to hide
I'm too empty inside
I'm too empty inside
You think I'm joking
But I got nowhere to hide
I'm too empty inside
I'm too empty inside
You think I'm joking
But I got nowhere to hide
I'm too empty inside
I'm too empty inside
Yeah
