I wait
I hate
Silence kills you like a loaded gun
My time
You waste
Resolution turn your back and run
Drunk with power
Your ivory tower
Never stood
Never could
And around and around
You hit the ground
Reservation hellbound
Most people cry
When a person dies
You wanna know why?
Run it through
Discharge
Most people cry
Not when you die
You wanna know why?
Run it through
Discharge
Nobody cried
You lived a lie
You lived a lie
Run it through
Discharge
Most people cry
When a person dies
You wanna know why?
Run it through
Discharge
Your life
What life
What's the difference between you and death
Overdose
Comatose
You won't even leave a corpse that's fresh
Drunk with power
Go take a shower
I wish you would
I wish you could
And around and around
You hit the ground
Reservation hellbound
A surreal vision
Of a human being
Self inflicted crucifixion
Suicidal contradiction
Clusterfucked you load it up
Clusterfucked you self destruct
Get off my dick
It's sick
I refuse to feel sorry for you
I can't
Believe
People put you on a pedestal
Drunk with power
Your ivory tower
Never stood
Never could
And around and around
You hit the ground
Reservation hellbound
I hate
Silence kills you like a loaded gun
My time
You waste
Resolution turn your back and run
Drunk with power
Your ivory tower
Never stood
Never could
And around and around
You hit the ground
Reservation hellbound
When a person dies
You wanna know why?
Run it through
Discharge
Most people cry
Not when you die
You wanna know why?
Run it through
Discharge
Nobody cried
You lived a lie
You lived a lie
Run it through
Discharge
Most people cry
When a person dies
You wanna know why?
Run it through
Discharge
What life
What's the difference between you and death
Overdose
Comatose
You won't even leave a corpse that's fresh
Drunk with power
Go take a shower
I wish you would
I wish you could
And around and around
You hit the ground
Reservation hellbound
Of a human being
Suicidal contradiction
Clusterfucked you load it up
Clusterfucked you self destruct
It's sick
I refuse to feel sorry for you
I can't
Believe
People put you on a pedestal
Drunk with power
Your ivory tower
Never stood
Never could
And around and around
You hit the ground
Reservation hellbound

Why has no one commented on this? I believe this to be a song about a heroin addict. It's all pretty self-explanatory in the lyrics. Drug casualties are rarely mourned for the victims are seen by those indifferent to them as losers.
The recitative feel of lyrics is smartly cool! ..any ideas how to fathom out "Run it through discharge!" ???
I always felt this song was about a specific person, possibly an important political figure, but never could figure out who it might be.
