lyrics

I've never made a song worth hearing sober
And I've always had a thing for the blood of stones, ah
Why you think I'm always shirking plans,
making amends,
I wouldn't have a thing to mend if I
weren't broken or breaking things
And I'm afraid that now I might be both
Not to mention medicated with a whole lotta rope

To tie my dreams around my throat,
And hope they float
But I'm not sure which way is up no more
"Hey man, what you walkin on the wall for?"
"'Cause it feels like home...
Always wanna be plastered'
Pills I take every night get me there faster
But the only thing about it is it only adds to problems,
When the memories of anything worth staying for are puddled on the kitchen floor

Search history says more about me
Than anything I ever said to anyone I care about
'Who pays my mortgage if I die without dependents?'
'I think I'm alcoholic'
'Can't feel without a drink now'
And I can't fool myself
No more.
This life is no shit movie
It's as real as the tears I stained your birthday card with

It's so ironic
I got myself into this state
To write the pain away
It's so ironic, this vicious circle of vice.

In front of me I see a skeleton
Seems like perpetually I am enveloped
By sinister motives of mirrors and demons
But they're the only ones who never leave now that

I am free
I feel caged.

You took my sadness away
But it cost me most of my soul
We were never perfect together
But I'm missing you now that you're gone

The irony could kill me... plot twist

Cut.

And it's so ironic
I got myself into this state
To write the pain away
It's so ironic, this vicious circle of vice...
