this song is about partying.

lyrics

Please don’t leave me, come haunt me instead
I can’t stand the way you look at me
I can’t see myself now
I can't see anything but you, now
I will hurt myself before your eyes
I will make you hate me as much as I hate myself

Please don’t haunt me, come with me instead and tell me
Tell me how she found your true name, yeah
A bottle of little green pills could
Cure you of your demons and stop you from drowning

You’re only eighteen and
You’ve already been through hell
Here comes the moonlight
It’s time to rid yourself of memories
Wait, don’t pick up the bottle like your father did
Don’t try to kill yourself like your mother did
A tab or pill might calm your head now
Another weekend passed out in bed

(Please haunt me)
(Please leave me)
She won’t love you the way you need her to
And she won’t fix you but she’ll lie and say you’re not broken
And you’ll try to erase your thoughts again
Yeah, you’ll try to overdose again

Now the medicine’s made you sick
You can’t remember what you did
The ambulance comes rushing
And you wake in a hospital bed
The television’s all static
And you hear yourself say:
“I will feel nothing”
