Lyrics

I'm waiting for the end of days

I anticipate the end of the world.

I think I'm good but I just might stay

I believe I'm fine, but I might stay despite that.

But I'm too wasted to care

My state of mind is impaired due to substance use, making me indifferent.

And if I go well fair is fair

If I meet my demise, it's a just outcome.


I'm headed for a relapse

I am on the verge of a return to self-destructive behavior.


I'm waiting for the apocalypse in 2012

I await the apocalypse predicted for 2012, but my current state is intoxicated.

But I'm so wasted

Despite being inebriated, I express indifference about the consequences, suggesting a willingness to face them.

I'll see you all in hell

I expect to see everyone in hell.


I relapse you laugh

My relapse elicits laughter from others.

I feel it coming

I sense a relapse is imminent.

A total collapse

Anticipation of a complete breakdown or failure.


Well surgeons cut to heel you

Medical procedures aim to cure, but they can also harm.

Axe murders cut to kill you

Violent acts intend to cause harm or kill.

Well I'm filthy rich and I'm horny

The speaker is wealthy and sexually aroused, yet uninterested in others.

But you just fucking bore me

Expressing boredom with others despite personal wealth and desire.


I relapse you laugh

I feel it coming

A total collapse

Anticipation of a complete collapse or failure.


I just bitch and moan about all my groans

Expressing dissatisfaction and complaining about personal issues.


I'm headed for a relapse

Reiteration of the speaker's trajectory towards a relapse.


Well I love life to death

The speaker loves life intensely but is also drawn to destructive substances.

But I also love crystal meth

Explicit mention of a fondness for crystal methamphetamine.

But those two don't usually get along

Acknowledgment of the conflicting nature between the love for life and substance abuse.

And a lot of people think that's wrong

Recognition that many disapprove of the speaker's choices.


I relapse you laugh

Similar to lines 12 and 21, relapse triggers laughter from others.

I feel it coming

A total collapse
