lyrics

You've only got six months to live
Before it pulls you under
I look him straight in the eyes
He's astronomically reduced
White skin on frail bones
If there's life then we'll take it from you
From the needle to the bloodstained bed
You'll never shake the death from your head
Ride on the wings of our empty promises

Jerry come home! There's talk of recovery
You're all right!
Jerry come home! There's talk of recovery
You'll live!

We're feeding lies to the hopeful
Your final days will be memorable

Jerry come home! There's talk of recovery
All right!
Checkbooks out, there's talk of a funeral!

And no one really gets it
No one wins this game
If everyone's so fucking different
Why do we treat them all the same?
Now there's time enough to settle our affairs
But there's no time left to hurt

Your odds have never looked so good
Smile I say!
Remission! Remission!
Looks like you're gonna be okay
Your odds have never looked so good
Smile I say!
Diminish! Diminish!
Jerry says he'll never be okay
He pissed six months away
