[Intro]
Oh, my, my, my, my
I seem to feel so much better when it
Kicks in, chemical kitchen
Feel my brain destruct
Oh, di-, di-, diazepam
You turn the volume down on my demons
And you give me but live just for a second
And you make it all so numb

[Verse 1]
Oh, why, why, diazepam
Do you make me feel like everything's not dissolvin'?
Spinnin' doors are revolving
Swallow a tablet, I'm overindulging
I've tried, tried diazepam
To be the optimist and resist cards folding
You're the crutch that I'm holding
Don't want tomorrow 'cause right now I'm golden

[Refrain]
(Di–, di–) Oh, di–, di– diazepam
(Di–, di–, di–, di–)
(Di–, di–) Don't lie, lie diazepam

[Verse 2]
Oh, my, my, my, my
When you leave, why can't I breathe? Like you've stolen
My very essence, my coding
Went for a swim and then drowned in your ocean
Don't lie, lie diazepam
You promised me the world, but now I'm rotting and moulding
And my face, it feels swollen
Anaesthetic, I block that emotion
[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Synaesthetic dreamin', I'm carried away
Anaesthetic bleedin', a place for the pain
Self-destructive healing, it's one and the same
Oh, di–, di– diazepam
Synaesthetic dreamin', I'm carried away
Anaesthetic bleedin', a place for the pain
Self-destructive healin', it's one and the same
Don't lie, lie diazepam

[Refrain]
(Di-, di-, di-, di-)
(Di-, di-) Oh, di-, di-, di-, diazepam

[Outro]
Synaesthetic dreamin', I'm carried away
Anaesthetic bleedin', a place for the pain
Self-destructive healin', it's one and the same
