Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada is known as the suicide capital of the world. This song is not about Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada

lyrics

Take the morphine from the shelf
You don’t care bout no one else
Put your kids through school so they’ll learn the Golden Rule
And maybe you’ll come out of your shell

You know I had suspicions
I still take prescriptions
this nightmare never ends You’ll find me with my friends
And this defies description

You know I try the best I can
But I still go back to the juice
They don’t need prayers in Heaven
and in Hell they’re of no use

The Bible you keep in your room
Only Reminds me doom
You hang me out to dry give me no reason why
I’ll be seeing you real soon
