Admitting the Endorphin Addiction - Open Mike Eagle, Paul White

I chase my poison tail

And get so high that voices fail

I heard that when you in a fucked up space

No one can hear you signal help

I tried to set them straight

Tell them I self-medicate

All they saw’s a glitchy video

But then I never show my cards

Instead, I write for stealth

Blah, blah, blah, I cry for help

All this bellyaching’s just to say

My belly’s hurting after all

It’s all endorphins, though

Or maybe every Scorpio

Is predisposed to never feel as cold

As the first time they felt a loss

My addiction, my obsession

My admission, my rejection

I insisted, I accepted

My prescription carried us away

Pretend I didn’t know

Who smoked up all the mistletoe

You’d really be surprised

How innovative I can get when left alone

And once them cravings strike

I knew I should say goodnight

Want for them endorphins

Got me saying everything except for that

White knuckle rodeo

And failing fills my holy holes

Staring at my phone

Wondering how endorphins travel via screen

As I feel my withdrawal

I understand them 90's songs

Rap music has ruined me

I always want to loop my favorite part

Day to day

Today is ground zero

I’m twenty inches tall

Today, today

My sky has fallen

I have no resolve

My addiction, my obsession

My admission, my rejection

I insisted, I accepted

My prescription carried me away

But then you see, you do the flip

In giving away the control, you’ve got it!
