  • Talk about the weather
    Will you miss me ever?
    Lately I'm obsessed
    And I need the rest
    I hope that you're impressed
    But she's so pretty I'm jealous
    And she's lost like Alice
    In a painted past
    In a looking glass
    I see me looking back

    I'll take another drink me, baby
    Slowly I'll disappear
    And live my life like a barb-wired necklace
    So let's play Truth or Dare

    So you're a fan of Coltrane?
    I wanna be Kurt Cobain
    When the truth gets scary
    I'll take my gin and cherry
    And some drink me, they'll be

    Plath and Joplin with verse
    Right in suiciders
    Kennedy and Monroe
    Come to see my rock show
    I'll be there in the front row

    I'll take another drink me, baby
    Slowly I'll disappear
    And live my life like a barb-wired necklace
    So let's play Truth or Dare

    And I won't be around to play your games
    There will come a day
    When you won't know my name

    But I'll get smarter
    With every swallow
    You'll wait tomorrow
    And things won't be the same

    Talk about the weather
    Will you miss me ever?
    Lately I'm obsessed
    And I need the rest
    I hope that you're impressed

    Cause I need the rest
    And my head's a mess
    I need the rest I need the rest I need the rest
