lyrics

You're gonna sleep for days
so you can count the ways
that you see her manifest inside your head.
And when you wake from such
stupid self-mutilation
you swear you're gonna change
and end this stupid shit-charade.

But how can you ever wake up
when your head is always nodding off?
I think you want this misery
because you romance the tragedy
of always being this way.

And I hate to hear you say
that you're gonna change
when you're drunk and buying rounds
that only lead you to your bed.
Well a lonesome bed is fine
when you've got a stable mind,
but not when it's a place to sink
back in to troubled times.

So you sink into that sea of mistakes
'cause you say that your heart aches.
Well it's only natural for awhile
but it's become your life.

And when I see you
I always bite my tongue.
Yeah when I see you
I always bite, oh how I bite,
I bite until I'm bleeding.

'Cause to tell you the truth…I'm just like you.
