Let's recollect
I’ve been falling off track
I've been telling you my problems,
now tell me yours back
Are they on the tip of your tongue?
You’re gonna bite them clean off?
Trust me, I know how much it hurts
You’ve got your stomach in a knot
It's my flaws I look at through the half-full glass
They remind me of how I still live in the past
If happiness comes in waves,
let me drown in its undertow
Cleanse back my innocence,
let it pull me below
Our time here is fleeting,
I can't find the meaning
So what happens when we're dead and gone?
Nothing at all
I'm a wreck, I'm a nameless face
I'm an unimportant man that always gets misplaced
How the hell am I supposed to pretend I'm alright?
This spinning room from an impending doom
I'll go out quiet in the night
So will I die today?
Will I drown in the undertow?
Cleanse back my innocence, let it pull me below
Our time here is fleeting, l can't find the meaning
So what happens when we're dead and gone?
Nothing at all
Do you think I'll ever find them?
The reasons why I'm like this?
I could point and blame at empty promises,
or the broken home I'm lost in
Just make me feel like a person again,
to love myself and make amends
I'd purge the grief that I buried down deep
But I can't forget the sorrows I've kept with me
Such a lost cause, god damn, I miss who I once was
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
