"Die, Die, Die" lyrics - DR. DOG

It turns out cigarettes can't kill you
'Cause when you didn't come back
Every time that I thought of you
I smoked a whole pack
I was up to about seventeen packs a day
I was refueling too
About every hour or so
I drank a bottle of white mule
I wasn't thinkin' about turquoise
I wasn't thinkin' about gold
I wasn't thinking 'bout thinking
Or 'bout gettin' old
It got to be so I didn't care
If I was leaving or loving
Oh, what I was
Or what I was becoming

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna die in your arms
I just wanna die
Don't wanna die in your arms
I just wanna die

And like a marionette doll
Oh, manned by a fool
I went into the chicken shed
Started looking for tools
Well I worked for a month
Built some sky and some clouds
And I built myself some angels
With trumpets so loud
Well they blared hallelujah
And I knew I was done
I walked through a golden gate with pearl inlays
Saw a never-setting sun
Well I knew I was dead
I couldn't do no more harm
Well I built myself a heaven
Where you died in my arms

[Outro:]
Well you died in my arms when I died
Well you died in my arms when I died
Well you died in my arms when I died
You died in my arms when I died
