Fill my lungs full of smoke 01:11

Fill my belly full of beer 01:14

Fill my nights with bad jokes 01:17

Told by folks full of fear 01:22

Fill my eyes with a stinging 01:24

Fill my time with wishing she was here 01:27

Fill my wide with the narrow 01:36

Fill my safe full of danger 01:39

Fill my bed full of shadows 01:42

Fill my dreams full of strangers 01:45

Fill my ears with a ringin' 01:48

Fill my heart with a fear of fear 01:51

Well, fill my cup half empty 'cause it's never been half full 01:59

Fill me up, paint me over, like a damp patch on the wall 02:05

Leave me lyin' on my stomach on your neighbour's bathroom floor 02:11

I'm only here until tomorrow anyway 02:18

I'm burnin' up, like a fever that rages in the night 02:21

Spark me up, I'm a firework, I'll burst into light 02:28

For it's better to burn out than to fade out of sight 02:35

That's what someone told me anyway 02:41

So fill my lungs full of smoke 02:47

Fill my belly full of beer 02:51

Fill my nose full of cocaine 02:53

Fill my eyes full of tears 02:57

Fill my short with a longin' 03:00

Fill my time with wishin' I wasn't here 03:02

Oh, fill my past with regret 03:09

Wrap my present in brown paper 03:15

Fill my future with promises 03:18

That promise to come later 03:21

Fill my heart with a stingin' 03:24

Fill my heart with a fear of fear 03:28

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Fill my lungs full of smoke

Fill my belly full of beer

Fill my nights with bad jokes

Told by folks full of fear

Fill my eyes with a stinging

Fill my time with wishing she was here

Fill my wide with the narrow

Fill my safe full of danger

Fill my bed full of shadows

Fill my dreams full of strangers

Fill my ears with a ringin'

Fill my heart with a fear of fear

Well, fill my cup half empty 'cause it's never been half full

Fill me up, paint me over, like a damp patch on the wall

Leave me lyin' on my stomach on your neighbour's bathroom floor

I'm only here until tomorrow anyway

I'm burnin' up, like a fever that rages in the night

Spark me up, I'm a firework, I'll burst into light

For it's better to burn out than to fade out of sight

That's what someone told me anyway

So fill my lungs full of smoke

Fill my belly full of beer

Fill my nose full of cocaine

Fill my eyes full of tears

Fill my short with a longin'

Fill my time with wishin' I wasn't here

Oh, fill my past with regret

Wrap my present in brown paper

Fill my future with promises

That promise to come later

Fill my heart with a stingin'

Fill my heart with a fear of fear
