hangin on a short rope
lookin like a white ghost
lovin like a toddler
swearin like a sailor
hangin on a short rope
searchin for my white coat
feelin like its all so hard sometimes
but i, i…
i don't know hard
wake up when it feels right
start drinking whenever I feel like
it looks so good on paper
but don't be naïve
it's just not that good
IT'S NOT A HAWK ON A FENCE THAT MAKES YOU A MAN
IT'S THE THINGS YOU JUST WON'T DO BUT COMPLETELY UNDERSTAND
i talk much like the tv; in circles
oh if this was then I'd say it killed me
but honestly
i've spent too much time on the topic
the wrong road is tough
its been accepted
i'm on my own. i'm on my own
who'd you think I was doin this for?
i'm on my own.
well can't you get yourself together?
well have you been tryin?
all this drinkin and lyin.
19 and dyin.
i'm ride ridin on this wave cause it floats me
i'm ride ridin on this wave cause it floats me
i'm ride ridin on this wave cause it floats but I don't wanna be
lost at sea. not me. no I can't be.
(is this me? is this really happening? a lapse in existing)
(where did I come from? what did I do? oh god and did I forget?)
i'm ride ridin on this wave cause it floats me
i'm ride ridin on this wave cause it floats me
i'm ride ridin on this wave cause it floats but I don't wanna be
lost at sea.
i was born by an angel
and she gave me wings
i burned em off
she don't know where I've been
i was born by an angel
i was born with wings
but they're gone. they're gone
and I miss my mom.
