Better Chemicals

Another night
Leaves up in my head
Leaves me in my dread
Recycling the bad dreams
So can you tell me how to make it stop short of being dead?
Mouth is hanging open, shot eyes are full of lead
I just wanna let you know
Sometimes I don't let it show

I need better chemicals, I know
Cause nothing helps anymore, oh no
Need better chemicals to show
You that I can be more

Another me
Free from hurting you
But I guess that's what I do
I'm stuck here in this complex
And I can't
Separate the side of me that's putting up the walls
I don't wanna lie so I just don't pick up the call
I wish I could let you know
Sometimes I don't let it show

I need better chemicals, I know
Cause nothing helps anymore, oh no
Need better chemicals to show
You that I can be more, oh oh

Break me down and cut me up
This can never be enough
Break me down and cut me up
My soul, my bones

Break me down and cut me up
This can never be enough
Break me down and cut me up
My curse, my hope

Break me down and cut me up
This can never be enough
Break me down and cut me up
My soul, my bones

Break me down and cut me up
This can never be enough
Break me down and cut me up
My curse, my hope

I need better chemicals, I know
Cause nothing helps anymore, oh no
Need better chemicals to show
You that I can be more, oh oh

I need better chemicals, I know
I need better chemicals, I know
I need better chemicals, I know
I need better chemicals
