So we party when the sun goes low
Imminent annihilation sounds so dope
I'm not shy but I refuse to speak
Because I don't trust you to understand me

You know me as the girl who plays with fire
But this is the song I wrote you in the dark

(I hear they're calling my name) 
I'm not gonna sleep anymore
(I hear they're calling my name) 
I'm not gonna sleep anymore

The boys are such a bore
The girls are such a bore
I never trust the government 
And pray to God for sure, yeah
I don't need to sleep anymore
That's what the drugs are for

Every city has a place like this
Underneath the bridges where the tainted kiss
Bullet wound with the butterfly wings
So I can sing along while I break things

You know me as the girl who plays with fire
But this is the song I wrote you in the dark
Ooh, you know me as the girl who plays with fire
But this is the song I wrote you in the dark

(I hear they're calling my name) 
I'm not gonna sleep anymore
I'm not gonna sleep anymore

The boys are such a bore
The girls are such a bore
I never trust the government 
And pray to God for sure, yeah
I don't need to sleep anymore
That's what the drugs are for

Paradise on the right, hell on the left
The angel of death right behind me
Paradise on the right, hell on the left
The angel of death right behind me
Paradise on my right, hell on my left
And the angel of death, she said to God
"Un-f*ck the world, un-f*ck the world
You stupid girl, you stupid girl"

I'm not gonna sleep anymore
I'm not gonna sleep anymore

The boys are such a bore
The girls are such a bore
I never trust the government 
And pray to God for sure, yeah
I'm not gonna sleep anymore
That's what the drugs are for
That's what the drugs are for

The boys are such a bore
The girls are such a bore
I never trust the government 
And pray to God for sure, yeah
The boys are such a bore
The girls are such a bore
I never trust the government 
And pray to God for sure, yeah
