With every drink downed there’s my life that I shorten
Inflamed insides acting I can afford it
I’ll get a transplant then I’ll be good as new
But it would never be the future that I’ll be looking to
Bad routines ain’t claiming I’m clean
They don’t know ways out they will serve the machine
Won’t prepare today maybe put the belt aside
Save it for a rainy day guess I’m waiting there inside
Taking diuretics I bet it’s a death sentence
Stepping out without a mask occupying the medics
I couldn’t fathom a life without my addiction
And we could never get right still creating this friction
Opposites attract ain’t that feeling a fact
To tell the truth I just wanted someone to distract
Me from driving off in a reckless attempt
To see what’s on the other side when you get to the end

I’m in a prison I’m tied down and captive
My head’s hiding elsewhere easily distracted
I can’t let go of what I’m beholden
I won’t give in no I won’t be folding

Voice in my head tormenting then a taunt
Try to ask what’s the reason but await in no response
My irrational pleasures I find enjoyment in blow
I took a good look around waking up in the snow
It’s no to money the leeching the people who feed
They want a cut out my pocket from the way that I lead
You wanna be me till the moment we meet
You see the things I worry bout then you don’t see the need
Wallow in hate and my misanthropy
I wonder when I’m gonna start living happily
They tell me hold out lights at the end of the tunnel
I’m going 90 miles an hour I’m about to unbuckle
And off the side of the road deteriorate in a field
Yeah we could feel the impact of the fence and the wheels
No alcohol in my body I did it with full intent
The smell of burning gasoline that I’ve grown to resent
I’m in a prison I’m tied down and captive
My head’s hiding elsewhere easily distracted
I can’t let go of what I’m beholden
I won’t give in no I won’t be folding
