She wakes up wet in a shower stall

Sewn together, bangs her head on a wall

She goes hitchhiking at 3 a.m.

Bruised and bloody, does it over again



She's got a deathwish

In a self-destructive blitz



He's got a car that goes real fast

He's got a life but it won't last

Doesn't even look disturbed

When his Chevy takes out the curb



He's got a deathwish

Coming home is a hit or a miss

He's got a deathwish

In a self-destructive blitz



Passed out drunk on the living room floor

Gets up and pukes so she can drink some more

And evening's party out in the fringe

Turns into a two-week binge



She's got a deathwish

Coming home is a hit or a miss

She's got a Deathwish

In a self-destructive blitz
