Viewing lyrics for Cobain & Them by Point Blur.

Stumblin' through life like "fuck it" is my motto
Can't seem to make a song without drugs, sex or sorrow
Cus I ain't got no purpose, that's why all I spit is hollow
But I don't even care; I'll have the bucket kicked tomorrow

I think I feel a little bit down - down - down - down
My feet don't touch the ground - ground - ground - ground
Are there any guns around - round -round
Barrel to my face like pow - pow - pow

Wow what a feelin', I done blew my ceilin'
Used to the thought of killin' myself, I think I'm willin'
Don't know if I'll have children, though I'm hopin' for some fame
So that I can touch some hearts before I go like Kurt Cobain

Storm to my face, mind to the sky, bored every day, I wonder why
It won't go away, boy have I tried
Coping with pain, coping with life
Dope in my brain; I get to hide, moments I'm sane; those I despise
I never love, I never cry, I never live - I wanna fly

I can see a future, but it don't look bright
I wanna fly away into the summer night
And don't need you to acknowledge my greatness when
I can place myself with Cobain 'n Them X2

I glorify the cliches - drunk bumpin' Nirvana
I think I have some bills, but I leave them to mañana
I wish I had some pills that I wish I had a lot a'
So that I could go bottoms up and down the muthafucking bottle

This song is just like "Perfect" man, why do I even bother
And fuck my fuckin' album cus I feel it is some garbage
Even though it is still better than what most rappers catalogues are
I still feel it's not as clever as it needs to settle score, I'm

Not lookin' back though, I endulge in my black hole
Into the fog and just let go, cus it's not hope I'm lookin fo'
But a broken suicidal, girl who rocks my boat
Who will ride me to the motion, while it sinks into the ocean, and then

When the trigger to the sawed-off gets pulled
When the wind makes it whistle through the holes in my skull
When the blood makes you slip before you notice me
You'll have your slippers stained with the greatest brain to spit flows - I'm the truth... bitch!

I can see a future, but it don't look bright
I wanna fly away into the summer night




And don't need you to acknowledge my greatness when
I can place myself with Cobain 'n Them X2

Coping with pain, coping with life
I'm struggling to cope with the difficulties of life


Dope in my brain; I get to hide, moments I'm sane; those I despise
I use drugs to escape my reality but hate the brief moments of clarity when I'm sober


I never love, I never cry, I never live - I wanna fly
I'm emotionally numb and want to escape my problems by flying away

I think I have some bills, but I leave them to mañana
I'm irresponsible with my finances and prioritize immediate pleasure over long-term stability


I wish I had some pills that I wish I had a lot a'
I wish I had access to more drugs to cope with my pain


So that I could go bottoms up and down the muthafucking bottle
I want to drink heavily to the point of blacking out and forgetting my problems

Even though it is still better than what most rappers catalogues are
Despite my self-criticism, I still believe my music is better than that of many other rappers


I still feel it's not as clever as it needs to settle score, I'm
I feel my music isn't clever or impactful enough to make a lasting impression, and it bothers me


Not lookin' back though, I endulge in my black hole
I'm choosing not to dwell on my regrets and instead immerse myself in my self-destructive habits


Into the fog and just let go, cus it's not hope I'm lookin fo'
I'm resigning myself to my fate and have given up hope for a better future


But a broken suicidal, girl who rocks my boat
I'm attracted to women who share my pain and instability


Who will ride me to the motion, while it sinks into the ocean, and then
I want to share a dangerous and tumultuous life with a partner before we inevitably crash and burn


When the trigger to the sawed-off gets pulled
When I finally commit suicide


When the wind makes it whistle through the holes in my skull
When the sound of the wind passes through the bullet holes in my head


When the blood makes you slip before you notice me
When the sight of my dead body and the blood makes you slip and fall


You'll have your slippers stained with the greatest brain to spit flows - I'm the truth... bitch!
My legacy as a rapper will be cemented through my suicide, and I will be remembered as a great artist
