"AA Almanac" lyrics

"AA Almanac"

Finally moved
I felt the scale of it
This year was a benchmark
Got my ego hit
Being still cause I want it
Not cause they tell me to
Passing up on their offer
For a better view

Revelator revel in the old days
Studying the old ways
Elevator takes em to the top floor
We've all had enough of that christian guilt
Never been inspired to kill

Ride it out dead on the inside
Ride it out dead on the inside
Ride it out dead on the inside
Ride it out dead on the inside
And there's your takeaway
Ride it out dead on the inside
That it's always been this way
Ride it out dead on the inside

Summer goes away and leaves an empty space
Everything informed feels all that waste
Low hum of depression like singing along
Untying everyone
And so it goes into another pace
Steady making eyes, wants to kiss your face
Suspect all the way it had a shaky start
I knew it felt cheap, I found the watermark

Bad luck on a good try
And that's the worst for you
There's no shame in the afterlife
Unless they got to you

Young buck tripping over dumb luck
Trying to be a good kid
Southern boy, loading up the birdshot
Resurrect your momma in the parking lot
Foaming at the mouth and lost

Ride it out dead on the inside
Ride it out dead on the inside
Ride it out dead on the inside
Ride it out dead on the inside
And there's your takeaway
Ride it out dead on the inside
That it's always been this way
Ride it out dead on the inside

Summer goes away and leaves an empty space
Everything informed feels all that waste
Low hum of depression like singing along
It's trying everyone
And so it goes into another pace
Steady making eyes, wants to hold your face
Suspect all the way it had a shaky start
I knew it felt cheap, I found the watermark

Panning all the good art
There's nothing left to feed us
If nothing makes us whole anymore
Try and do your part
It's clear it's not your arch
Considering your meant to be more
Pleading with the doctor
Don't keep me any longer
An hour more and you stay down
Sign the DNR with your broken heart
And start bleeding out of every thought

Good-bye, never be the bad guy
Go and be a lawyer
Bobby's gonna make it to the farm league
Farewell pissing in a jail cell
Dammit you were raised well
Take it in and take it for a long ride
