Lyrics An Artist with a Self-Portrait Has No Imagination - Versus You

An Artist with a Self-Portrait Has No Imagination

I was drinking to forget their shit-talking
I was drinking to forget the heroes that I’ve never found
I was drinking to forget the wrong words that I’ve said
I was drinking to hide from my own ghosts
The word 'life' could mean
So much more than this
Dreams of red water in a white bath tub
Dreams of gray cold blades cutting through my skin
I was drinking to forget the fuckers that I hate
I was drinking to drown the thoughts up in my head
I was drinking to keep on lying to myself
I was drinking to pass the time
With eyes I can trust
You are saving me, my friend
With empty pockets refilled
I’m shaking hands with my ghosts
This haunted town has a name
Dead eyes have been refilled
