Paper or plastic
Doesn't matter it's all fake
Smoking joint or glass of beer
Doesn't matter it gets me out of hereLover in the back seat
Don't need any love
Searching for feeling, feeling numb
Don't need any love, because it's dumbPale lady shines in the headlight
Cold air makes the goosebumps pop
Pulling her hair through the night
Skin on skin until I say stopAspirin or whiskey
Doesn't matter, all does the same
Laughing because I feel displaced
Debating to finish on the back or the faceShe is now getting tired
I don't want to go home
Dropping her off, never see her again
I don't want to go home, wounds don't mendHollow man tries to fill his hole
Thinking of the pale lady in the headlight
Takes another swig to find his soul
But the grip of devil is so tight
