"Dead For Days" lyrics
"Dead For Days"
This is where the cop said his head hit
He'd been dead for days
Eighteen hours away
I didn't see him
But Tim did
That part hadn't changed
Since we were kids
Now I've got friends that don't know me
A wife that's disowned me
You in concept only to miss
And I've been sober
For over
Two weeks
The only thing I learned from that man
Is I'd rather be estranged than next of kin
This is where my rock-bottom is
It's a short fall from grace
From such a tiny stage
I can't believe the lies that my mouth spit
I can't believe she stayed
As long as she did
I'm so over
Being sober
My needs are in me, not the drink
I'm riding a fine line
An accidental overdose or suicide
Tell my mom she was right all along
And tell my kids this is where my head hit
This is what a life in flux looks like
I ain't got a bed
To rest my head
This is how I hide
From a guilt that won't subside
I ain't got a good reason
For leaving

The mayor's out killing kids to keep taxes down
And me and my anger sit folding a paper bird
Letting the curtains turn to beating wings...
Into It. Over It. - "No EQ" Born too late
I always find my interests
Remain intact just behind the times
A waste of space
Expired sound and blueprints
But piece by piece, they all fall in line
To what has been addressed as

The Promise Ring - "Nothing Feels Good" I don't know East Texas from Louisiana
And I don't know Alabama or where Atlanta lies
Where Atlanta is tonight
And Indianapolis summers in park and recreation pools
And carsick vacations in size...
American Football - "Every Wave To Ever Rise" Forever has to wait
I can't face another day
All the flowers you brought me
One by one
Fell asleep without me
Truth or dare
Love is the cross you bear
J'ai mal au cœur
C'est la faute de l'amour...
