This lighter don't work, no No flame to spark my goal My Nike's laced in dirt, oh I've ended up treading on my own soul My headphone's only working on the left side But I try to live the right life My eyes wide and I strive To stop my demons gripping, ripping from the inside This road is dark and I can't find the batteries for my flashlight I'm blind eyed and I'm tired These drugs don't work The pain, it takes control A blood-stained shirt I feel like I'm always being chased by the devil I tried to talk but I can't seem to get my spoken words right And I t-t-t-t-t-t-try to keep my stutter light And this life it can be ish right, cut you like a flick knife Twist and make you sick right And I think, maybe I'll be better off alone So I redirect the calls from my phone I learned so many lessons from depression But in essence, I'm just wishing that these bad thoughts were gone (I'm blind eyed) (I'm blind eyed) (I'm blind eyed) Sometimes I bleed, sometimes I crawl Sometimes I slip, sometimes I fall Sometimes my back is up against the wall so hard That whole building could fall Sometimes I bruise, sometimes I break Sometimes I'm true, sometimes I'm fake Sometimes I'm hoping for a moment When the floor would just start opening And swallow me for goodness sake I think I'm gonna break 'cause I ache And it's bait I'm awake in a world full of pain Superman no cape and I'm pressing the breaks But the breaks, they break And I'm driving my universe into a lake And the weight, the weight of the world, don't wait We make mistakes when it's all at stake We cook out cake, we eat our cake Sometimes no time for double takes but (That's just the way life goes sometimes) But I don't want to end up in the gutter Being battered by my troubles Face down in puddle where the sun don't shine So I'm coming and giving it back Upon the track and attacking 'em Stacking up beats like I did with this one I pack it in And I'm praying, oh lord, take this pain away
