| Look at what the cat dragged in, still breathing last night’s air
|
| Hand shaking cause the vice never fights fair
|
| And you’re relating cause you struggle with the same shit
|
| And wrote the threat of addiction off with the same sip
|
| Drowning, holding on to anything and everything around me
|
| Staring down the barrel of a browning
|
| Scowering, looking for any chance that allows me
|
| To sip another bad taste down and devour it whole
|
| Young bright and bold with a bottle for a friend and a heart full of holes
|
| No diamond in a stocking full of coal
|
| Never listen to the world when it told me I should slow my roll
|
| It’s abusive, but never hands on a women
|
| Choked a couple bottle necks and pounced when I shouldn’t
|
| If the proof is in the pudding I done ate it all up
|
| Instead of savoring the taste I love
|
| I’m on that shit again and I don’t wanna come back down
|
| I hold my broken crown in pieces
|
| Pour my last shot to the ground
|
| You’re on that shit again, trying to overload my mound
|
| You always chase me round in circles till I’m forced to hit the clouds
|
| I won’t come down
|
| What’s your meaning of high, huh?
|
| Getting lifted on a smoke cloud
|
| Moderately poisoning yourself until you zone out?
|
| Stick the dragon in your veins, sniffing Adderall and Cain
|
| Tilt another Styrofoam cup to your mouth
|
| Me? |
| I got my own way to get up
|
| Starts with a rocks glass and ends with a hiccup
|
| And all the while I’ve been camouflaging my symptoms
|
| Like I don’t do the harder drugs cause I slip up
|
| Slip up — yeah that kid slipped up
|
| Rehabilitated twice and skipped straight to the pub
|
| I got my pops freaking out about his son
|
| And I’m juggling the stress of an artist by getting drunk
|
| No difference
|
| I escape like the rest of them, no thought, no faith like the rest of them
|
| I’ve been focusing and fighting so hard
|
| That I deserve a little bit of R&R, right?
|
| I’m on that shit again and I don’t wanna come back down
|
| I hold my broken crown in pieces
|
| Pour my last shot to the ground
|
| You’re on that shit again, trying to overload my mound
|
| You always chase me round in circles till I’m forced to hit the clouds
|
| I won’t come down
|
| I never claimed to be a saint, shit
|
| I built a life off of mishaps
|
| And cheers proudly to my flaws with a chipped glass
|
| The sick fact is I’m happy when I’m shit-canned
|
| At least a little bit, I smile like a lit candle
|
| But I’m aware that I’m just blinded by the blanket of it
|
| And stress doesn’t get relinquished just by drinking something
|
| And I don’t know if I’m addicted to the feeling or the fact
|
| That I can make a little exit without thinking of it
|
| Hell, I guess I’m showing all the signs huh?
|
| And redirecting to where alcohol defines fun
|
| And I’ll admit that I’ve been known to have a good time
|
| But promised that I’d never cross the line
|
| But never learned to draw it, call it, write it with a goal
|
| Make it so the night train never gets to go
|
| I’m as vulnerable as any of you other Joe Shmoe’s
|
| And got a couple little vices of my own
|
| I’m on that shit again and I don’t wanna come back down
|
| I hold my broken crown in pieces
|
| Pour my last shot to the ground
|
| You’re on that shit again, trying to overload my mound
|
| You always chase me round in circles till I’m forced to hit the clouds
|
| I won’t come down |
