The Used, "Choke Me"
(2002)

As of now I'm down straight up
And I can turn to the box for some peace
Or a box for a piece
Or a box for a smoke
But they're all going to choke me

As of now I'm down straight up
And I can turn to the box for some peace
Or a box for a piece
Or a box for a smoke
But they're all going to choke me

You're so crazy
You're so crazy
You're so crazy
Enough in a way that I'll probably say you
Destroyed me

It's like a fucking drug deal
I'm sitting here waiting
I'm calling you back
And you won't call me back
And it's fucked up
But at the same time it
Just made me want you even worse

For a while I was cleaner than now
Then I started to destroy myself
With things that I love now the things that I hate
Until it finally broke me

You're so crazy
You're so crazy
You're so crazy
Enough in a way that I'll probably say you
Destroyed me

Bert, fuck my ass, now! Fuck my ass, now!
Choke me, choke me, choke...

As of now Im down straight up
And I can turn to the box for some peace
Or a box for a piece
Or a box for a smoke
But they're all going to choke me

You're so crazy
You're so crazy
You're so crazy
Enough in a way that I'll probably say you
Destroyed me


Thanks, Ellie! She also sends an interview that covers the subject of "Choke Me." The gist: the singer and guitarist got into a fistfight, and then the singer wrote a song about the sexual tension between them. Yes.
