Precipice

With more talk of the precipice
Failure seems so eminent
Archaic modes of self depreciation
To say that I'm okay....
LIE RIGHT TO YOUR FUCKING FACE
I always have to have the last word
Every time
To know that I've been scraping by
Long enough to know by now
That I'll be less than fine
Stomp out my delusions and read between the lines
Read the obituaries and see myself in 'em
Then awake from savage nightmares
Clear the sweat off my brow
Realize my judgement
I STILL WON"T BE FINE
Advise me of my circumstances
SELL ME ON MY OWN LIFE
I always have to have the last word
Every time
To know that I've been scraping by
Long enough to know by now
That I'll be less than fine
Stomp out my delusions and read between the lines
Read the obituaries and see myself in 'em
I always have to have the last word
Every time
To know that I've been scraping by
Long enough to know by now
That I'll be less than fine
Stomp out my delusions and read between the lines
Read the obituaries
Read the obituaries
Read the obituaries
Read the obituaries
And see myself in 'em

To all my triumphs and defeats
To celebrate who I am
Never leaving this to chance
All in all I'm happy
About where I've landed
Yet I keep drinking "forward"
Again & again & again
Later days & longer nights
Pass the bottle right back to me
Drink it in, let everything sink in
Another shot to all my wasted contingencies
Some false courage to have some faith in me
Some faith in me
Some faith in me
The bar tab is getting high
But not as high as me
This bar stool has become
My only true friend
I'll just sit here confessing all of my sins
As I keep drinking backwards
Again & again & again
Later days & longer nights
Pass the bottle right back to me
Drink it in, let everything sink in
Another shot to all my wasted contingencies
Some false courage to have some faith in me
Some faith in me
Some faith in me
Some faith in me x3

Halfway to Dismay
02:19

I'm walking away, something had to change
It was never going to be you
The same argument, a sense of resentment
I can't utter a single word
I'm halfway to dismay
Choking on this overwhelming feeling of catastrophe
Quartered at the end
Pushed into this corner
I don't ever wanna
I DON'T EVER WANNA FEEL THIS WAY AGAIN!
And I can't say that I didn't see this coming
Over talking that results in nothing
I can go over this again
I think I'll save it.....
I'm halfway to dismay
Choking on this overwhelming feeling of catastrophe
Quartered at the end
Pushed into this corner
I don't ever wanna
I DON'T EVER WANNA FEEL THIS WAY AGAIN!
And you can't talk your way out of this one
(Talk your way out of this one)
Manipulation is your tool
It wasn't becoming in the first place...
I CAN'T STAY

Not For Very Long

You pushed me out
I'm hanging on, by the skin of my teeth
These nights feel way too long
And as it turned, I felt it in my stomach
That deep, down something wasn't right
So I bled over this page like it would save me
Was this inside me the whole time?
I'm past the point
Of nowhere to turn to
Deepening feeling
I'm hanging on
But not for very long
Not for very long
I'm a wreck
This can of High Life is my lifeline
As my mind reels from the bitter things I said
Did I make the worst decision?
Just get high, let the world fall on me
So I bled over this page like it would save me
Was this inside me the whole time?
I'm past the point
Of nowhere to turn to
Deepening feeling
I'm hanging on
But not for very long
Not for very long
You pushed me out
I'm hanging up
I never needed this to feel whole!
So I bled over this page like it would save me
Was this inside me the whole time?
I'm past the point
Of nowhere to turn to
Deepening feeling
I'm hanging up
