[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
I need better chemicals, I know
'Cause nothing helps anymore, oh no
I need better chemicals to show
You that I can be more
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
I need better chemicals, I know
'Cause nothing helps anymore, oh no
I need better chemicals to show
You that I can be more, oh oh
[Bridge]
(Break me down)
(Break me down)
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
[Chorus]
I need better chemicals, I know
'Cause nothing helps anymore, oh no
I need better chemicals to show
You that I can be more, oh oh
[Outro]
(I need better chemicals, I know)
(Need better chemicals)
(I need better chemicals, I know)
(Need better chemicals)
