Foam had started forming on the side of your mouth

I took a line and a lick and a little pinch

Expressing surprise at a situation but finding something positive.

Do me up a double keep an eye on my dose

And now your heart beats biased since it's started to slow

Can't quite correct my corrupted sighs
