"Tipping The Scale" lyrics

"Tipping The Scale"

Okay, I give up, you can come out now
I've seen the sky, it's prettier than the ground
I had it once but I don't know where it went
And I told myself this wouldn't happen again

You can't solve a problem with a song
You can't solve a problem with a song
You can't solve a problem with a song
But you can try

I know I shouldn't fuss, I'm tipping the scale
Sometimes success just feels like waiting to fail
And something tells me the chips are consistently down
And I'm just more aware when no one's around

You can't solve a problem with a song
You can't solve a problem with a song
You can't solve a problem with a song
But you can try

Since I cut my teeth on trying to poison myself
All I do is obsessively worry about my health
And why should I even bother keeping it clean?
When living's going to kill me eventually

You can't solve a problem with a song
You can't solve a problem with a song
You can't solve a problem with a song
But you can try
