Written March 2000. Don't think anyone
will be booking a vacation to Opaquer Place anytime soon.
Sure, I'm selling my shit on the streets. As of yet, got no takers. Cuz
I'm charging an arm and a leg and limb for this trash I hate on the dark side of Opaquer Place. --Buying some
time at Opaquer Place-- --Selling my finds at Opaquer Place--
Try to bring this thing right bring this thing right
outta me Trying to force this thing out force it up outside of me See how far my hands can dig down deep inside of
me Blackened goods do show the depths of my dependency
Chorus Old habits don't die easy Dying horse has
few breaths left Opaquer Place has pulled the reigns on me And I wish it wouldn't rain less
Like a salesman
who shows the inside of his trench, I, too, got goods stashed in my guts. Maybe they're see-through, but I got a feeling
they're not. Wrenching them out doesn't take that much. --This is the weight of Opaquer Place-- --This is the
way to Opaquer Place--
Keep on trying to just wrench it up on outta me This dirty stinkin' sell will never let
myself just be To have this habit monster staring up and back at me Clutching to terrible is where I always wanna
be
Chorus Old habits don't die easy Dying horse has few breaths left Opaquer Place has pulled the reigns
on me And I wish it wouldn't rain less
I'm giving a piggy back ride to the worst thing in the world. Then
I'll sell my back for a buck. There won't be a line to buy back a piece of my spine. Been a while since I gave a fuck.
--This is the way of Opaquer Place-- --This is the way to Opaquer Place-- --I am the disgrace of Opaquer Place--
--I am the disgrace of Opaquer Place--
Making certain that this shit is somehow close to me Terrible, it seems,
is where I always wanna be Grab me by the throat and sees what throws up out of me Taking back seat while the sorrowed
crow will take the lead
Chorus Old habits don't die easy Dying horse has few breaths left Opaquer Place
has pulled the reigns on me And I wish it wouldn't rain less I wish it wouldn't rain less I wish it wouldn't rain
less I wish it wouldn't rain less
