I say that I got it from her, well she doesn't really feel that way
An omission in the logic of a child's brain, ridiculing others for the same damn pain
I feel the same, I feel the same
I don't want to jump ship mother, I'm looking after
You feel the same, you feel the same, I'll see you right now as I look up at the rain
A child cries
A dream dies
A mother has a drink
My ambitions as a young man starting to think
My child yet to be
A dream I can see
My lips pressed to a drink
Ambitions as a good man starting to pull me away
Learn from mistakes you haven't made.

I live life
I work hard
I pay bills
I deal cards
I need this
I have stress
I work hard
I live to escape
I make money
And you see that you're heading towards the land of sorrow
And you see that you haven't a care in the world right now
So long as you ingest your magic cure right to your organ
Liquid or matter or needle it all comes around and will swallow you in the end
I need help
I lost life
I lost her
I lost it
I lost jobs
I lost me
I lost hope
I lost the way
Yes everything around me is a damn lie
That's what I get for asking for a piece of pleasure pie
This world was boring so I needed something more
But it did nothing 'cept kick my big hopes and dreams right out the door
I am an owner of a head that's always spun
I am a concesuer of my idea of fun
I am a loser in the eyes of those who raised
I am a sinner in the eyes of peious praise
There is just one thing that is left for me to do-
I want to do it again, again and again.

I've been looking up and out, out of two eyes, seeing tunnels
Upbringing bringing me close, closer to my calling
I wanna wash it down and away
Mother said I would one of these days
But I'm stuck here.
I wanna be as free as an uncaged bird
The one you heard in the shadows
A drastic change from the family
This is my life and river flows bitterly
Dream, seeping through my skin
C2H4O, pull out addiction within and throw it down

Setting sun can't shine, now you're gone
Inside sleeping, my heart beating
You know that you tried to hide it
Shouldn't you have said what you meant? Oh...
Time heals, time congeals around us
Endless hours of wasted moments
Understanding, not demanding
Your eyes tell what you feel inside
Setting sun can't shine, now you're gone
Inside sleeping, my heart beating
You know that you tried to hide it
Shouldn't you have said what you meant?
You lied!

At the drop of a hat
You can feel all that's real
Through a phonetic haze
And through a pornographic daze
See the world within walls
Make sure that nobody's called
Ignoring indigo blue
You're treading lightly without shoes
Expectation to a tee
Go and hide your sanity
Feel all you can feel
Then bore yourself with something real
This deliverance is short
Someone is wondering what for
It's because you wanted it all
The charade is soon to fall
Cleanse this body now, I am a sinner reborn
I pick the hat up again, and glue it to my hand
Cleanse my spirit now, I am a sinner reborn
I pick the tool up again, and here I go again

Out here
Barely see my breath
Surrounded
By jealousy and death
I can't be reached
Only had one call
Dragged underneath
Separate from you all
You all
This time
Lost my own return
In spite of
Everything I've learned
I hid my tracks
Spit out all my air
Slipped into cracks
Stripped of all my cares
My cares
I'm so tired
Sheep are counting me
No more struggle
No more energy
No more patient
You can write that down
It's all too crazy
I'm not sticking round

You're blue, I'm blue
My own personality, who?
Youthful fear guides the mirror to their soul.
Smoke shrinks the pride, foolish pride so clear.
Reflections all along my 16 traits and mirrors.
Everybody's gonna go to the party now, here's a mask that's preselected, yes you're such a hearty clown.
Beware of the voices, the friends you can buy
Friends in tall buildings, for which weekly you eye.
Take a test for a penny and time, your true self will be revealed once nickled and dimed.
Beware of voices, soft and sweet, explaining your sanity will all but deplete
Because they are you now! You are them, they have convinced you, and now they win.
