No one cares, you know.

We're all numbing from the exact same show.

It'll make you feel better, feel more.

Free your inhibitions, get lost in your life mission.

Live happy, be free, be the best that you can be.

That tingle in your mind, you'll never feel it without me.

You can numb the pain and not feel so alone.

No matter what happens, you can seek comfort in my home.

You can scream, you can cry, no one will ever bat an eye.

Loosen up darling, this will ease your anxiety.

You'll never feel this happy in sobriety.

Ask for one, leave after four, I'll never leave you not wanting more.

The good times will keep rolling with me by your side, what's a Sunday Funday without your ride or die?
