Letra de Petroleum

I've been put down and been the target of scorn
So many times I've cursed the day I was born
Tasted every taste and done all to the max
I've survived this long thanks to pills and twelvepacks
It's all been hazy but one thing I know
No use to fight it when you're sunk so low
Can't take the pressure so I bring out the torch
Found my dead girlfriend on the front porch
THAT'S WHAT DID IT FOR ME, THAT'S WHEN I LIT THE FLAME
THAT'S WHEN PETROLEUM HELPED ME TO GET AFTERLIFE FAME
I GOT BACK TO ONE, GOT RID OF ALL THAT'S BEEN WITH A MATCH AND GASOLINE..
Yeah I was put down and the target of scorn
Sure I'm a coward but I don't think you'll mourn
The tastes I tasted was just to get away
To escape the pain and block out the things you'd say
I stand here ready with a can of sauce
Self-inflicted combustion and you're the cause
A gruesome sight but I won't feel the flames
The fire is the only thing that cleans the stains
THAT'S WHAT DID IT FOR ME, THAT'S WHEN I LIT THE FLAME
THAT'S WHEN PETROLEUM HELPED ME TO GET AFTERLIFE FAME
I GOT BACK TO ONE, GOT RID OF ALL THAT'S BEEN WITH A MATCH AND GASOLINE..
