From the album "Night Sweats & Fever Dreams"

lyrics

With a feverish lust like a fire in your chest
You drug and you fuck 'till there's no fucking left
Your mind is a mire of hunger and hate
Your body's the temple that you desecrate

This mind fucking soothes a little while
Helps you swallow back the bitter bile
Is this the punishment for your past sins
Made you a cushion for the needles and pins

You know you're bound to drown
You hold the ceiling as the walls fall down
Your path is plain to see
Ka-ka-kamikaze

Now you're wired by your veins to a hospital bed
Wasting away and gaunt with regret
At the years misplaced and the youth misspent
And all the people who made you in hate with yourself

Not such a pretty smile
Now I'm choking on the bitter bile
This is the punishment for my past sins
Made me a cushion for the needles and pins

I know I'm bound to drown
I watch the ceiling as the walls fall down
Who'd choose this way to be
Ka-ka-kamikaze

Looking back at the life that you wasted away
No money in the world can buy back those last days
Cling tightly to the last fond fragments of your friends
Surely too soon for this to be the end
