lyrics

Caught at it again
My days burn like cigarettes
It’s ambitious from the get go
I’ll break down before I let go

Life’s slow monotony has come to eat away at me
All this settling will soon decide where I’m buried

It’s been like this for too many days to count
I’ll say I’m coping, it’s hard to scale when I’ll fall out
Restless nights, I’ll put this on myself
I’ll say I’m coping, it’s hard to scale when I’ll fall out

Maybe when I’ve given up
I’ll learn just how to patch this up
I’ll lose a limb but gain a heart
It’s not ideal, but it’s a start

Cut us off from our home towns
If we stay we’re bound to drown
Old habits soar like Tidal Waves
They crash on me, I’m bound to cave
