@[KevinJB:29869] perhaps it's intentional, as a reference to a drug high never being as long as the user wants it to be

Alkaline Trio – Heart Attacks Lyrics 6 years ago
Because the lyric edit won't work:

It’s time I should be leaving, it’s time for me to go
A painting on my ceiling and your footprints in the snow
They found you Christmas morning beneath the tree in the front yard
The sound, the screams, the mourning
As we send sympathy cards

Hydrocodone acid-washed brain
A shame, a total loss
They said that they did all they could
That boy's been dead since childhood
Leave me alone to analyze
The sour power of surprise
A ticker out of time and whack
Too young to die of heart attacks

I guess I should be going, there’s nothing I can say
To keep your dad from throwing up at least 3 times a day
They found you Christmas morning beneath the tree in the backyard
The pounding of your mother’s fist while freezing in the car

Oxycodone acid-washed brain
A shame, a total loss
They said that they did all they could
That boy's been dead since childhood
Leave me alone to analyze
The sour power of surprise
A ticker out of time and whack
Too young to die of heart attacks


I’d kill for a drink (Fetch me a drink)
Casket to carry
Try not to think (Try not to think)
About you dead and buried

Hydrocodone acid-washed brain
A shame, a total loss
They said that they did all they could
That boy's been dead since childhood
Leave me alone to analyze
The sour power of surprise
A ticker out of time and whack
Too young to die of heart attacks

Frightened Rabbit – Backyard Skulls Lyrics 9 years ago
To me, the song is about hiding things about yourself that others might find embarrassing.. Backyard skulls = skeletons in the closet. The message of the song is that our SO will discover our "backyard skulls" that are "not deep enough to never be found", so we might as well admit to our own imperfections and let them decide where to go from there.

Frightened Rabbit – An Otherwise Disappointing Life Lyrics 9 years ago
Another beautiful break-up song by Scott, though I'm sorry he has to keep going through them.

The chorus is all about rebirth/starting anew, hence a fire on an "otherwise disappointing night". His waving goodbye is to his old relationship that he took a "pain pill" to ignore.
