Bitter

If I sober up I'll get bitter
'Cause it feels like I'm stuck here in place I'm in stasis
And everyone's faces are all rearranging
Themselves It's hell
And I'm not really sure but as far as I can tell
I'm no quitter but it's not an easy sell
So I'll save you the trouble and I'll fuck it up myself
Look at what I've gone and done; I wrote another
Melancholy song about the times I missed and let my
Indecision take the wheel but I don't know how to feel
So I'll feel fine
When things get better I feel worse
It's like I'm floorin' it in reverse
But I can't stop it's like the brakeline
To my brain has just been cut
Spiral down or so it seems while all my narcissistic
Tendencies play parts that they've rehearsed
Guess I romanticize the worst
Look at what I've gone and done; I wrote another
Melancholy song about the times I missed and let my
Indecision take the wheel but I don't know how to feel
So I'll feel fine
If I sober up I'll get bitter
'Cause it feels like I'm stuck here in place I'm in stasis
And everyone's faces are all rearranging
Themselves oh well
I guess this is normal and I should get comfortable now
Don't ask how;
I'm not taking questions I'm already out
Oh look at what I've gone and done; I wrote another
Melancholy song about the times I missed and let my
Indecision take the wheel but I don't know how to feel
So I'll feel fine
Oh look at what I've gone and done
I'm wrapping up another silly song
To justify my missing out and
Letting every dumb mistake I've made
Run through my head on play-by-play
It's over and there's nothing left to show
So now it's time to let it go
Time to let it go
And I feel fine

You don't know the meaning of free
You mobilize your fashion based army
Like a pilot screaming through a transistor radio
All you get is feedback, so proud of what you know
But you won't believe me cuz I'm speaking from the soul
And the soul seems too religious, so you mark it as unknown
When the soldiers step into the battleground
You'll never believe the life they'd found
A million opinions versus one strong-minded foe
And when I said "You've gotta let it go"
Your defenses multiplied tenfold
A poor moral compass, and a crime
Yeah, you're wasting your time
Well ideas have been popping in (and there's no way of stopping them)
Save yourself and save the world
Ideas have been popping in (and there's no way of stopping them)
When their evil way's unfurled
Well the screams were heard from miles away
From the victims who all died that day
Locked away into a fashion sense
Ignorance no consequence
Fighting for the wrong ideas
That you can't even defend
So if you believe in unity
Could you love a cop or a priest?
Brought that down and your world did burn
And you realized now it's your turn!
Tell the world what it needs to be
But it seems nobody's listening
So you make haste, do it today
Try to find another way
On your journey what did you see?
Another person you'd rather be
I had a friend who had a foe
Who taught me everything he knows
Locked away into a fashion sense
Ignorance no consequence
Fighting for the wrong ideas
That you can't even defend
So if you believe in unity
Could you love a cop or a priest?
I had a friend who had a foe
Who taught me everything he knows
He said "I've learned a lot in my many years,
but something still bothers me I fear"
If you lost your friends, and you lost your peers
Where do you go from here?
Where do you go from here?

Diggin a Hole

Sweat and blood drippin'
When I stop and think, my mind starts slippin'
I'm diggin' a hole down in the dirt
And soon I'm gonna be lying in it
Self-destruction is nearing success
And all I want to do is get some rest
It's become a routine and I can see that I'm not well
So I'm diggin' a hole straight down to Hell
I can't keep puttin' it off, puttin' it off
For another day
I'm diggin' a hole, diggin' a hole
Soon it'll be my grave
I can't keep puttin' it off, puttin' it off
For another day
I'm diggin' a hole, diggin' a hole
Soon it'll be my grave
I feel the anchor weight is pulling
And this frayed knot is shortening the distance
Between dry skies and the depths below
I couldn't tell the difference
I keep struggling to catch my breath
Despite all my persistence
I can't keep puttin' it off, puttin' it off
For another day
I'm diggin' a hole, diggin' a hole
Soon it'll be my grave
I can't keep puttin' it off, puttin' it off
For another day
I'm diggin' a hole, diggin' a hole
Soon it'll be my grave
What have I done to myself?
Is there another to blame?
Feeling like I've got no choice
All alone out in the rain
I can't keep puttin' it off, puttin' it off
For another day
I'm diggin' a hole, diggin' a hole
Soon it'll be my grave
I can't keep puttin' it off, puttin' it off
For another day
I'm diggin' a hole, diggin' a hole
Soon it'll be my grave

Won't Let It

It's Friday night
The curtains are pulled
But you're still hiding in your cup
The lights are low
But they all know
That you're not quite aware what's up
I'm lookin 'round
You're lookin down
Cuz you can't see what this could be
I'll do what it takes
Whatever it takes
To make this work for me
There's no stopping me now
I'm on the move
I've found my groove
All revved up and ready to go
I'm not really sure how
It took so long to write this song
To get off my ass and say on with the show
On with the show
Try to dance around all these problems
By hiding in the spotlight
You're dizzy from your spiral down, yeah
It's time to get your head right
You fake a smile
Try and pretend that everything is just fine
But don't forget it
Cuz I won't let it, won't let it be the last time
I'm not sure where things went wrong
Time's run out and I'm moving on
It's too late, I've come too far to quit
So I guess we're parting ways because I'm tired of the bullshit
I'm not sure where things went wrong
Time's run out and I'm moving on
It's too late, I've come too far to quit
So I guess we're parting ways because I'm tired of the bullshit
There's no stopping me now
I'm on the move
I've found my groove
All revved up and ready to go
I'm not really sure how
It took so long to write this song
To get off my ass and say there's
There's no stopping me now
I'm on the move
I've found my groove
All revved up and ready to go
I'm not really sure how
It took so long to write this song
To get off my ass, to get off my ass and say
On with the show
