Dead on the Vine Lyrics

When you take a license go in for the kill
You open your throat and choke down a sweet pill
But as you will find the effects soon wear off
And find that there is no more room at the trough
Push back the thoughts, try to keep them at bay
Saving them up for a much darker day
Taking my steps with a push from behind
No longer a slave to the grind

You can't read the signs, because you are blind
You just fell behind
You're dead on the vine

Is time on your side and are you running free?
To get to the place that you wanted to be
Are you the man you were hoping to find?
Not long till you're losing your mind

You can't read the signs, because you are blind
You just fell behind
You're dead on the vine

You can't read the signs
You just fell behind
You're blurring the lines
You're feeling just fine
You're dead on a vine
You're dead on a vine
You're dead on a vine
