Deja vu is top 5
While Relapse is a bit inconsistent, the highs are very high
“Your VCR tape cases, with your Ambien CR
Great places to hide 'em, ain't it? So you can lie to Hailie
I'm going beddy-bye, Whitney, baby, good night, Alaina
Go in the room and shut the bedroom door
And wake up in an ambulance
They said they found me on the bathroom floor, damn”

Totally agree
Also, side point, Em seems to have been pretty shaken by the whole Heath Ledger thing - guess he died around the same time the album came out, it pops up in my mom too "Stumble hobble, slip trip then I fall in bed, with a bottle of meds and a heath ledger bobble head"
The line directly preceding that one in deja vu is something like "you and me, we almost had the same outcome, Heath... You know that whole pneumonia thing, it was bologna, was it the methadone ya think ..."
Tangent I know, but Relapse/ refill has loads of threads like that
