It comes, it stays wave after wave
I guess you'd call it a tirade
Rolls in and breaks like pins and needles, and I'm a slave
To a rising waterline headspace
I am numb but in disgrace
So I shake and sweat and puke this out
All over my bed frame
Breaking pills in half to avoid the tolerance
Next time I go down this path
White knuckles clenching tightly to the aftermath
"Put down the bottle", they say
Or it's an early grave
"Let yourself heal, this'll go away"
But I swear my darkness lies in wait
Kill the lights, crawl inside myself again
Kill the lights because I can see the end
Kill the lights, I'm beside myself again
Kill the lights, you wanna die tonight my friend?
They said we're surely set to fade
Like wilting flowers on a grave
So how the fuck can I save this?
I can barely save myself
♪
Can't seem to save myself

Never cease to pull me under
My own mind tears me asunder
Slip back to the depths within as the pills kick in and I drown in it
Check 1, 2, OK still sane
Can you feel it running through your veins?
With that same old endless rain
And the goddamn migraines and stomach pains
And I can feel it coming over me
I can tell you a few things about half empty
They said we're surely set to fade
Like wilting flowers on a grave
So how the fuck can I save this?
I can barely save myself
I've got a comfort wine
Do drugs from time to time
I told you I felt fine
You said I'd lost my shine
