Percogesic Lyrics

She wants nitro
When she herself's a box of TNT
All the baptized and underacknowledged
She lights her flame over nothing, oh
She needs every single pleasure

As the percogesic was tapering off
And the fumes surrounded, I know I bit off
More than I can chew
A lot of low sight in my lungs
I never thought I'd be so disarmed
Bit more than I can chew

Raised on full bites
She stumbles through her parents' living room
As the velvet curtains lay
I drew my blood over my front door
And I hope she passes over, over

As the percogesic was tapering off
And the fumes surrounded, I know I bit off
More than I can chew
A lot of low sight in my lungs
I never thought I'd be so disarmed
Bit more than I can chew

One thing I can't change
And I hope she passes over, over

As the percogesic was tapering off
And the fumes surrounded, I know I bit off
More than I can chew
A lot of low sight in my lungs
I never thought I'd be so disarmed
Bit more than I can chew

What is the Meaning of Percogesic?

Gallant crafts a hauntingly vivid tale of emotional overload and addiction. The song starts off depicting a woman who subconsciously embodies danger and recklessness, hinted by her chaotic cravings. Gallant himself seems overwhelmed, admitting he "bit off more than [he] can chew" as he navigates these volatile emotions. The recurring line about "percogesic tapering off" suggests a numbing escape, fading just as the fumes of reality set in. The haunting imagery of drawing blood over a front door invokes a desperate plea for protection or release. It's a poignant portrayal of a relationship that challenges one's limits and the desperate measures taken to cope. #EmotionalWarfare #ToxicLove
