"Practice What You Preach" lyrics

"Practice What You Preach"

Head filled with smoke
(And it's rising under pressure)
Dirt in my lungs
(Coughing earth it's nothing special)
You lie through your teeth and you won't let me speak
Wish that I could practice everything that I preach
It feels like happiness is out of reach
I see the fraud that is hiding underneath
(Underneath)
Hold my tongue when I probably should speak
Always searching but I'll never find relief

All the these thoughts of who I am forgotten
I've thrown and tossed around
It's bringing me down and down and down
All the precious memories I've lost them
They're all gone and can't be found
It's bringing me down and down and down
The only reason for my misery
The only reason for my misery

I feel like I've thrown everything away
Even my shadow's afraid of my company
I can't stand the things you've done to me
Kills my soul that I know you're still running free
Bite your tongue every time when you think of me
You're the only reason for my misery

All the these thoughts of who I am forgotten
I've thrown and tossed around
It's bringing me down and down and down
All the precious memories I've lost them
They're all gone and can't be found
It's bringing me down and down and down
The only reason for my misery

I've been running on empty for a long time
Feels like I'm always late
This one I'm on mine
I'd try to run but my grave
Keeps on pullin' at me
I know I'm wasting my time
What am I becoming

These thoughts of who I am forgotten
All the precious memories I've lost them

All the these thoughts of who I am Forgotten
I've thrown and tossed around
It's bringing me down and down and down
All the precious memories I've lost them
They're all gone and can't be found
It's bringing me down and down and down
The only reason for my misery

The only reason for my misery
The only reason for my misery
