i hear a rock hit my window
i wake up and look below
he asks me to play outside
we pretend he never died
he will never drink coffee
or fall in love
or talk to me
i miss someone

i miss someone who is underground
i lost someone
i lost someone
i lost someone who cannot be found
it wont kill me
it wont kill me
it wont kill me to ask for help
it wont kill me
it wont kill me
it wont kill me to love myself

wanna get drunk
wanna get high
wanna forget that i'm alive
my friends think i'm an alcoholic
i know its just me being dramatic
and i think this intervention's kinda drastic

wanna fall down
wanna fuck up
wanna go out and push my luck
wanna fail out
gonna sit and pout
while i pour more trauma down my mouth
wanna lay low
wanna die slow
while i give you all a great show
i'll strap on my boots and walk a mile
anything to hold on to my denial
cus i've been doing this shit for awhile
and doing okay's just not my style

"You said you have a nickname for this street."
"Morgue Avenue. It's not Morgan honey, it's morgue."
"Which houses have people died in?"
"Which houses have they not died in?"
"Really?"
"Really."
"Look at all these places man. I've lived here for 5 years and in 5 years it's been unreal. I mean, in 47 minutes there was already 9 deaths."
"In 47 minutes?"
"On this street."
"People are dying from what?"
"Drugs."
"Over the past 2 years, Fentanyl, a synthetic opioid that can be thousands of times stronger than heroin, has been flooding places like Montgomery, Ohio, where the overdose rate has skyrocketed. In May, the county passed last years number of deaths and officials estimate this year will be double that."
