Lyrics
What would they say about this addiction?
The late nights and unnecessary complications.
Finding out how much she cares,
But now it's a little too late, dear.
I can't pretend this doesn't hurt,
But I have to be strong for her.
And I can't stay sad here forever,
I have to get over myself.
And I'm spewing this garbage,
But its strong enough
To hold onto, 'till the tide rolls in
And washes both of us down shore.
And its all just metaphor for this
Constant mess, and the loneliness
This year, and all the past ones
Leading up to this, same old shit.
Guilty doesn't even begin to describe this,
I'd rather be real than counterfeit.
So why do I keep lying to myself,
And more importantly to everyone else?
This is the last thing I want to do,
But it feels like the only thing I need.
Guess you could say I'm a compromise,
Selfish dreams, broken glass, blatant lies.
And I'm spewing this garbage,
But its strong enough
To hold onto, 'till the tide rolls in
And washes both of us down shore.
And its all just metaphor for this
Constant mess, and the loneliness
This year, and all the past ones
Leading up to this, same old shit.
I just want something like I used to have,
Like a stupid song, or a lyric draft,
About all the problems I cause for myself,
With a little help from everyone else.
And I don't even have dreams anymore.
At this point I'll even take a nightmare.
Please get me out of the headlights.
Please get me out of the sleepless nights.
And I'm spewing this garbage,
But its strong enough
To hold onto, 'till the tide rolls in
And washes both of us down shore.
And its all just metaphor for this
Constant mess, and the loneliness
This year, and all the past ones
Leading up to this, same old shit.
Please get me out of the headlights.
Please get me out of the blue eyes.
Please get me out of the headlights.
Please get me out of the sleepless nights.
