      C#                                        G#m
I can feel it coming up and spreading inside of me
   B                                         F#
It warms the blood and it eats away the memory
        C#                                    G#m
From my pen you expected the sweet honey to drip

Well, I'm afraid, honey, that it crumbled down to the powder in your wallet
     C#                                       G#m
And all the different shapes and forms which you control

From the whitest and purest to the whore of alcohol, ah, look at her run
