Lyrics

ONLY MIX WITH NEON TEARS

WORDS & MUSIC by
T. EDWIN DOSS cpyr. 2002

ONLY MIX WITH NEON TEARS, TRYIN TO LOSE A MEMORY.
ONLY MIX WITH NEON TEARS, FOR HEARTACHE AND MISERY.

IT SEEMED I NEEDED MEDICATION... I STEPPED INSIDE A BARROOM.
I TOLD THE BARTENDER ALL ABOUT MY LONELY GLOOM.
HE SAID HE HAD THE RIGHT PRESCRIPTION AND HE BROUGHT A
BOTTLE TO MY TABLE.. BUT HE ADVISED I READ THE INSTRUCTIONS
ON THE WHISKEY WARNING LABEL.

'ONLY MIX WITH NEON TEARS TRYING TO LOSE A MEMORY.
EXPECT IMPAIRMENT OF YOUR VISION.. DON'T DRIVE OR
RUN MACHINERY.. AND IF YOU SEE HER WHEN SHE'S
REALLY NOT THERE, TAKE A DOUBLE DOSE INSTEAD.
USE ONLY AS DIRECTED TO STOP
THE VOICES IN YOUR HEAD.'

SO I COME BACK HERE EVERY NIGHT, TRYIN TO LOSE THE THOUGHTS OF HER, WITH TOO MANY REFILLS, WHEN MEMORIES BEGIN TO STIR. I DON'T HAVE TO READ THE SMALL PRINT NOW WHEN I BEGIN TO FALL APART... UNLIKE MEMORIES I LOSE SOMEHOW, I KNOW EVERY WARNING BY HEART.

'ONLY MIX WITH NEON TEARS WHEN LITTLE THINGS
BRING THOUGHTS OF HER... SOME SYMPTOMS MAY BE
RESTLESSNESS.. CERTAIN FLASHBACKS MAY OCCUR.
ALL KNOWN SIDE EFFECTS WILL SURELY GO, WITH THE
JUKEBOX RINGING IN YOUR EARS... YOU'LL FEEL THE
PAIN AND MISERY.... ONLY MIX WITH NEON TEARS.'
