"Benzo" lyrics

I am running on fumes today
My smile is getting slow
The batteries die by night
Nerves with no place to go

Dark days, no break in my head
No time, no spine, no goals
When every wave hits hard
How will I heal my soul?

Forgotten hope in a box
I think of her till I drop
Love was my favorite card
Now I've run out of luck

Longing for time to breathe
The same old song and dance
Measure my worth in smiles
Shame on my face and hands

Searching for peace of mind
Haunted by ghosts of the past
I find my pills and I hide
Tough guy, but frail like glass

Down on my hands and knees
Cold sweats I hide from the crowd
Too dumb to ask for help
The pain is way too loud

Walk in my shoes and fall
Try follow my steps and sink
No sleep last night, again
Lord knows how minds overthink
Lord knows how minds overthink
