Snake Oil
Weeping in the wreckage of the weekend
Treading heavy water in the deep end
Struggling to speak and feeling weakened
Been a while since you said you’d be leaving

Dig yourself a grave
Deep enough to keep you down
Dig yourself a grave
Deep enough you can’t climb out

The snake oil ain’t good your health
The snake oil ain’t gonna help you now

Weeping in the wreckage of the weekend
Wonder how you wound up down here again
You might look asleep but you’re just dreaming
Did you find a god you could a believe in?

Dig yourself a grave
Deep enough to keep you down
Dig yourself a grave
Deep enough you can’t climb out
The snake oil ain’t good your health
The snake oil ain’t gonna help you
Now your friends are leaving town
And the hole you dug won’t hold you down
So you’re hanging out and you’re hanging round
And your home is but a battleground
The snake oil ain’t gonna help me now
