One time weekly rate 
12 by 12 foot room
Strapped down to the bed 
Now pump up the valium

My mind is wide asleep 
My conscience deep awake 
The promises I keep 
Are not the ones I make 
I count the caustic causes 
I lost count of regrets 
A surplus of good intentions 
Don't provide me with content 
All I want is just a little content 

One time monthly rate 
Still no breathing room
Pressure's building up 
So pump up the valium

I choose the beaten path 
I've been to where it leads 
Why I keep coming back 
A mystery to me 
I found what I've been seeking 
It's too late for me to care 
My aspiration's leaking 
From a hole I can't repair 
Maybe I just don't want it repaired
