How Long's It Been |
| Fail and cry |
| If you don’t shout and sing and roam you’ll be in your house with your doubts |
| Do you want to go out and wish you were home, or be home and wish you were out |
| I’m in a weird phase of life somewhere between birth and death |
| Four days past my bedtime putting one word in front of the next |
| When you’re around you you get down on you |
| But who’s around you and who’s down for you |
| Fail and cry and see the light, I’ve failed more times than you’ve even tried |
| How long’s it been since you’ve wondered that? |
| I’ve had cups in my room longer |
| than that |
| I’ve had thoughts in my rooms that were longer than that |
| And the thoughts in my head overstayed some more years |
| Even though they’re pretend they’re still needing more help |
| And I don’t fit myself anywhere around here |
| All I see is my wealth |
| I tried to go for them |
| I come rolling up |
| I don’t need no more blems |
| The head coming up |
| I’m making it all blend |
| They’re all trying to come, need more than a token |
| What you coughing up? |
| It’s all in the open |
| I need no more love |
| Tattoo — close the chapter |
| I keep myself warm with the cup I’ve just poured |
| You know you can’t run more than the signals are gone |
| Fail and cry and see the light, I’ve failed more times than you’ve even tried |
| How long’s it been since you’ve wondered that? |
| I’ve had cups in my room longer |
| than that |
| Money don’t matter but all I ask is the chance to earn it for myself |
| No doubt they’re bluffing; |
| we are all crabs trying to get out of the bucket |
| You won’t reason, you are all story |
| Luck doesn’t give, it lends that way |
| I’m on season 2, episode 4 of your shit |
| The fuck I give went that way |
| I can’t unsee that, I can’t rid the image |
| Cry and try and unspill milk |
| Mates are gunna' mate and others cry |
| Haters gunna' hate and lovers lie |
| Fail and cry and see the light, I’ve failed more times than you’ve even tried |
| How long’s it been since you’ve wondered that? |
| I’ve had cups in my room longer |
| than that (long) |
| Fail and cry and see the light, I’ve failed more times than you’ve even tried |
| (how long?) |
| How long’s it been since you’ve wondered that? |
| I’ve had cups in my room longer |
| than that |
| I am never ever far from the swan |
| What you think I was born for? |
| War money coming up in lump sums |
| Bet they wanna' take me off for ransom |
| Maybe I might be the last one |
| They be in my heart that’s a hard choice |
| Now I gotta' run it up the last time |
| Don’t even try coming past nine |
| Needing my time |
| Creep up at night |
| Hit the lab, buss a little hi-hat |
| Fail and cry and see the light, I’ve failed more times than you’ve even tried |
| How long’s it been since you’ve wondered that? |
| I’ve had cups in my room longer |
| than that |
| Fail and cry and see the light, I’ve failed more times than you’ve even tried |
| How long’s it been since you’ve wondered that? |
| I’ve had cups in my room longer |
| than that |
| You’ll be in your house |
| With your |
