i never wanted this . . .
whatever i’ve got right now
i was waiting on it to get easier
i’m still waiting it out
you’re pulling me back
you’re pulling me back down
you win
i can’t
i can’t do this again
if i ever get that bad, take me out to a field and shoot me
if i ever get that bad
take what you can; don’t leave me with your hands empty
i know what you want
i’m not resistant
i’m speeding it up
the best days are when I know that it’s over
the worst are when I hope that it’s not
there’s a footnote at the bottom of a page that no one reads
the last representation of what we used to be
we refuse to accept it but it fits us like a glove
you don’t have to be happy to be loved
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
