lyrics

I swear to God today I'll make a change,
I'll wake up at a normal hour & do my best to shave.
But man, I still get angry at the shower
and my cigarettes are getting drunk with power.
Everytime someone brings up Chicago…
God help me if someone says the word "Colorado"
I just close the doors, and mortar up the bricks.
The hell with Tuesday June 26th.

Well everyday I put myself to shame
Thinking all of this is just going to fade
Time it makes things less severe
But it doesn't shelter fear.
Well baby, if you're lucky enough to survive
I hope it rains every time you drive.

Yeah you became a ghost, just like you said.
Now I can only fall asleep if I'm not in my own bed.
Knowing where your head once laid,
Smiling through the night.
Of course we know I'm not doing alright.

Well everyday I put myself to shame
Thinking all of this is just going to fade
Time it makes things less severe
But it doesn't shelter fear.
Well baby, if you're lucky enough to survive
I hope it rains every time you drive.

I'm tired of pretending that I made it out unscathed,
and maybe I'm still waking up at 5A everyday.
I'm staying inside and blaming it on the weather,
Its time to get my shit together.

'Cause there are liars, there are losers,
there are sinners, there are thieves,
there are doctors and believers baby,
But they can't give you peace.
And I'm sure if there's a God,
he's drunk as fuck on Jesus' blood,
just trying to wrap his head around what you've done.
