[Intro]

Oh, my, my, my, my

I seem to feel so much better when it

Kicks in, chemical kitchen

Feel my brain destruct

Oh, di-, di-, diazepam

You turn the volume down on my demons

And you give me but live just for a second

And you make it all so numb

[Verse 1]

Oh, why, why, diazepam

Do you make me feel like everything's not dissolvin'?

Spinnin' doors are revolving

Swallow a tablet, I'm overindulging

I've tried, tried diazepam

To be the optimist and resist cards folding

You're the crutch that I'm holding

Don't want tomorrow 'cause right now I'm golden

[Refrain]

(Di–, di–) Oh, di–, di– diazepam

(Di–, di–, di–, di–)

(Di–, di–) Don't lie, lie diazepam

[Verse 2]

Oh, my, my, my, my

When you leave, why can't I breathe? Like you've stolen

My very essence, my coding

Went for a swim and then drowned in your ocean

Don't lie, lie diazepam

You promised me the world, but now I'm rotting and moulding

And my face, it feels swollen

Anaesthetic, I block that emotion

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]

Synaesthetic dreamin', I'm carried away

Anaesthetic bleedin', a place for the pain

Self-destructive healing, it's one and the same

Oh, di–, di– diazepam

Synaesthetic dreamin', I'm carried away

Anaesthetic bleedin', a place for the pain

Self-destructive healin', it's one and the same

Don't lie, lie diazepam

[Refrain]

(Di-, di-, di-, di-)

(Di-, di-) Oh, di-, di-, di-, diazepam

[Outro]

Synaesthetic dreamin', I'm carried away

Anaesthetic bleedin', a place for the pain

Self-destructive healin', it's one and the same
