Dying Proof
JULIANA HATFIELD
You need more heat
This is a recurring theme
You die in flames in my dreams
"I need to get more sleep."
This is what you always say
Lying in a junkie's way
[Chorus:]
Finding you turning blue
It's easy to discern the truth
I can see what not to do
One look at you the dying proof
Pick up your cigarette
Forget what I said
It's so hard to care what you do
You say, "Look at me
Respectfully." I can't
[Chorus]
If life is a performance
And I am not an actor
Am I supposed to lie down and die?
