Painkiller Lyrics - Backyard Babies

I see your phone's been cut off again 

Did you shoot all your troubles up the vein? 

Someone saw you, said, you were deadly pale 

Another night in hell, another night in jail 

Looks like the Chinaman's reelin' you in 

Looks like the horse is gonna win 

Looks like the monkeys are holding on tight 

Say hello to darkness, goodbye light, painkiller 

And as obscurity beckons the call, it seems oblivion 

Is the only thing to cushion your fall 

I believe that everything is gonna be too late 

It all sinks along with the ship you chose to hate 

Looks like the Chinaman's reelin' you in 

Looks like the horse is gonna win 

Looks like the monkeys are holding on tight 

Say hello to darkness, goodbye light, painkiller 

Now you sold all your possessions 

And not only your own 

There's miles to go yet 

But you're at the end of your road 

So you finally surrender 

To the endless sleep 

Found dead next mornin' 

With your life at your feet 

Looks like the Chinaman's reelin' you in 

Looks like the horse is gonna win 

Looks like the monkeys 

Are holding on tight, say hello to darkness 

Looks like the Chinaman's reelin' you in 

Looks like the horse is gonna win 

Looks like the monkeys are holding on tight 

Say hello to darkness, goodbye light, painkiller 

Sail into the darkness goodbye light 

Say hello to darkness, goodbye light 

Say hello, goodbye
