“Something has me
Oh something has me
Acting like someone I know isn’t me
Ill with want and poisoned by this ugly greed”

“Ill with want and poisoned by this ugly greed
Temporary is my time
Ain’t nothin on this world that’s mine
Except the will I found to carry on”

“Ten thousand words swarm around my head,
Ten million more in books written beneath my bed.
I wrote or read them all when searchin’ in the swarms,
Still can’t find out how to hold my hands.”

“But when I drink
I spend the next morning in a haze,
But we only get so many days.
Now I have one less…
Just do your best.
It’s the only way to keep that last bit of sanity.
Maybe I don’t have to be good
but I can try to be at least a little better than I’ve been so far.”

“Some say with age that a purpose comes clear.
I see the opposite happening here.
Are we losing the fight?
Are we growing backwards with time?”

“The weight of lies will bring you down,
And follow you to every town.
Cause nothing happens here
that doesn’t happen there.
So when you run make sure you run
To something and not away from,
Cause lies don’t need an aeroplane
to chase you anywhere.”
