I'm at the rodeo with a bloody nose
I see those flashing lights every time I close my eyes
I'm mixing chemicals, lookin' for a miracle
I pray I feel something, but I'm out of dopamine

It don't work no more
No, it don't no more
It don't work
Oh, I've tried

But I can't get high like I used to every night
I can't get high
It don't work no more, oh, I've tried

I'm a menace on a mission, chasin' dragons playin' chicken
You either die a hero or live long enough
To see yourself become the villain
Candy flippin' in the foyer, mixin' dust with marijuana
And I think I'm hearin' voices, can't control the paranoia

Oh, I can't get high like I used to every night
I can't get high
It don't work no more, oh, I've tried
I can't get high like I used to every night
I can't get high
It don't work no more, oh, I've tried

My river has run dry
How will I survive?
Will I live or will I die?
I'll find out tonight
'Cause it don't work no more
It don't work no more
It don't work
How I've tried, but why?

No, I can't get high
Why can't I get high? Oh, why?
It don't work no more, how I've tried
Oh, why?
