This lighter don´t work, no No flame to spark my goal My Nike´s laced in dirt, oh I´ve ended up treading on my own soul
My headphone´s only working on the left side But I try to live the right life My eyes wide and I strive To stop my demons gripping, ripping from the inside This road is dark and I can´t find the batteries for my flashlight I´m blind-eyed and I´m tired
These drugs don´t work The pain, it takes control A blood-stained shirt I feel like I´m always being chased by the devil
I tried to talk but I can´t seem to get my spoken words right And I t-t-t-t-t-t-try to keep my stutter light And this life it can be ish right, cut you like a flick knife Twist and make you sick right And I think, maybe I´ll be better off alone So I redirect the calls from my phone I learned so many lessons from depression But in essence, I´m just wishing that these bad thoughts were gone
I´m blind eyed I´m blind eyed I´m blind eyed
Sometimes I bleed, sometimes I crawl, sometimes I slip, sometimes I fall Sometimes my back is up against the wall so hard that whole building could fall Sometimes I bruise, sometimes I break, sometimes I´m true, sometimes I´m fake Sometimes I´m hoping for a moment when the floor would just start opening and swallow me, for goodness sake I think I´m gonna break ´cause I ache and it´s bait, I´m awake in a world full of pain, Superman, no cape And I´m pressing the breaks but the breaks, they break and I´m driving my universe into a lake And the weight, the weight of the world, don´t wait We make mistakes when it´s all at stake We cook our cake, we eat our cake, sometimes no time for double takes but
That´s just the way life goes sometimes But I don´t want to end up in the gutter being battered by my troubles Face down in the puddle where the Sun don´t shine So I´m coming and giving it back upon the track and attacking ´em Stacking up beats like I did with this one I pack it in And I´m praying, oh Lord, take this pain away
