[Verse 1]
I'm pretty sure, as far as humans go
I am a hard, hard pill to swallow
And I know I'm not your intended dose
We're goin' low, low, low, low

[Pre-Chorus]
So, roll the highlights, "got too high" life
Mix the low, low, low lights with the low, low, lowlifes
On the bright side, got the wrong insides
Mix the low, low, low lights with the low, lowlifes

[Chorus]
I spent ten years
Ten years in a bitter chemical haze
And I missed the way that I felt

[Post-Chorus]
Nothing, nothing
Na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Nothing, nothing
Na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

[Verse 2]
Passed my old street, the house I grew up in
It breaks your heart, but four of the Ramones are dead
I felt you at the beginning, but needed you at the end
We're goin' low, low, low, low
