Stone Temple Pilots
Trippin’ on a Hole in a Paper Heart
[Verse 1]
Don't cut out my paper heart
I ain't dyin' anyway
Take a look at Eiffel towers
Never trust them dirty liars
Sippin' lemon yellow booze
Old Lead Belly sings the blues
All dressed up on wedding day
Keep on trippin' anyway

[Chorus]
I am, I am, I said I'm not myself
I'm not dead, and I'm not for sale
So keep your bankroll lottery
Eat your salad day, deathbed motorcade

[Verse 2]
Fake the heat and scratch the itch
Skinned-up knees and salty lips
I'll breathe your life, Vicks vapor life
And when you binge, I purge alike
Let go, it's harder holdin' on
One more trip and I'll be gone
So keep your head up, keep it on
Just a whisper, I'll be gone
Take a breath and make it big
It's the last you'll ever get
Break your neck with diamond noose
It's the last you'll ever choose
[Chorus]
I am, I am, I said I'm not myself
I'm not dead, and I'm not for sale
Hold me closer, closer, let me go
Let me be, just let me be
I am, I am, I said I'm not myself
I'm not dead, and I'm not for sale
So keep your bankroll lottery
Eat your salad day, deathbed motorcade

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I am, I am, I said I'm not myself
I'm not dead, and I'm not for sale
Hold me closer, closer, let me go
Let me be, just let me be
I am, I am, I said I'm not myself
I'm not dead, and I'm not for sale
So keep your bankroll lottery
Eat your salad day, deathbed motorcade
