lyrics

I fell asleep in my car in a parking lot
waiting on a cal from my friend
to see if his world was coming to an end
and I

ran through daydreams of cigarette smoke
filling this house that I built
where all these walls are now black with years of this filth

I paid some girl with the idea of love
to clean these walls of doubt for a change
but she just covered them with a can of cheap paint

and now these walls look just like me
the paints cracking at the seems

and you can see the bullshit
thats keepin me in a cage you can't see
shackled at the ankles
incarcerated inside of my dreams

Im fucking tired of these talks
telling me that I am more
that what this fucked up brain is
telling me I am at my core

They say dead men tell no tales
but the zombies on the road
are telling me tales
of how they wish they never had to grow old

I meat a girl she said words like love
she had violent tendancy to think she loves me
and I had a tendancy to take things literally

light em up she said
I think she meant a cigarette
but now I'm wanted across the US

I took something for the headaches
I drank something for the heartaches
I don't know when I will be there
but it looks like it's gonna take some time

I took something for the headaches
now its just a dull pain
I drank something for the heartaches
a bottle of jack and I'll be fine
I don't know when I will be there
I'll do my best to be there soon
but it looks like its gonna take some time
