Consumption Lyrics

[Chorus]
Consumption

[Verse 1]
Ain't going to find me here
Consumption
Ain't gonna find me here
I'm gonna find me a place where there ain't no nothing no feel

[Chorus]
Consumption

[Verse 2]
I get down on my knees
Consumption
I get down on that knee
I seem to be mistreating killing me by degrees

[Chorus]
Consumption

[Verse 3]
Pour me one you please
Consumption
Pour me one you please
A run on the honkey tonk makes that one for free
Have another bottle
Make me who I wanna be
Make me who I wanna be
Make me who I wanna be
[Chorus]
Consumption

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
