Drano-Ears by The Static Jacks Lyrics
“I faked it,” you said, getting up from the floor-
Another attempt to nullify the pain from the war
With yourself in your mind
With all the gathering fears
You drink Drano ‘til it comes out of your ears
But you know in your heart it’s not right
And you know in your heart that I’m right
You said that he loved you
And now he has gone away
But if love’s just a literary construct, it’s all the same
But you’ve been doing your summer reading
And going insane
Alone for the day
But the worst of it’ll pass away…
The worst of it’ll pass away before you know it
We’re playing this game that we cannot survive
And culture has rendered our actions contrived
And you sit and you think
‘til you’ve come unwound
But if you can hear my voice
Take comfort in the sound
Alone for the day
But the worst of it’ll pass away…
The worst of it’ll pass away before you know it(x2)
You said that he loved you
But now he’s nowhere to be found
See, if love can build you up
Then it can tear you down
Another attempt to nullify the pain from the war
With yourself in your mind
With all the gathering fears
You drink Drano ‘til it comes out of your ears
But you know in your heart it’s not right
And you know in your heart that I’m right
You said that he loved you
And now he has gone away
But if love’s just a literary construct, it’s all the same
But you’ve been doing your summer reading
And going insane
Alone for the day
But the worst of it’ll pass away…
The worst of it’ll pass away before you know it
We’re playing this game that we cannot survive
And culture has rendered our actions contrived
And you sit and you think
‘til you’ve come unwound
But if you can hear my voice
Take comfort in the sound
Alone for the day
But the worst of it’ll pass away…
The worst of it’ll pass away before you know it(x2)
You said that he loved you
But now he’s nowhere to be found
See, if love can build you up
Then it can tear you down
