Cut away/because nothing stays but the ghosts that just won't seem to leave stay awake for 3 days straight/or spend a week beneath my sheets I've compromised my state of being for this UNCOMPROMISING WEIGHT I'm building burdens faith deserted I don't know how I ended up this way but the damage is here to stay how much longer can I keep PUSHING LIFE away? another month?another day? the longer I keep doing this the more I'll have to pay another stab? another swing? the world is throwing punches and I can't keep up the pace another tour? another state? another fucking year without a penny to my name give it up?push it away? ive always been a fan of change but never when that change involves me I'm not a righteous one no I'm not a spoiled son I gave it all of my guts but I guess that all just ain't enough I mourn stability I'm sick of singing over a dead beat the high life is coming down and I got nothing left to say that you would understand anyway I'M ON MY OWN even if I throw this away/the memory will always haunt me of the days when the sun was shining so fucking bright that it's light was blinding now the sun wont rise again/now the sun wont rise my friend NOW THE SUN WON'T TOUCH MY FACE I've accepted my fate I'm DROPPING OUT OF THE RACE
