[Verse 1]
You twenty-nine year panic attack
You're not the fashionable kind
The kind where you wake up and say, "Man
Just wanna survive"
This world is short on empathy
You got out of your parents' place
You started makin' money
Crashed your car, and now they want your laces

[Pre-Chorus]
Gave you just enough
To make you feel like you fucked up
Realized that you couldn't keep yourself clean
And kid, you're not half bad
Could even be more than your dad
Why're you complaining
If they're not listening?

[Chorus]
'Cause we're just so fuckin' tired
Of explaining ourselves
We throw a pill down our throats
Or ourselves into the ocean
'Cause half our friends are dead
The other half are depressed
This budget-rate life
The borderline is looking thin
[Verse 2]
Drivin' out into the water
'Cause you took that leap of faith
And I only see you floating, so I turn my stereo up
You're livin' bender to bender
And I only saw you when we were high
You're finally touched down, and I'm folding

[Pre-Chorus]
You said, "Enough is not enough
Always feel like you've fucked up
So what's the point of keeping yourself in line?
They won't name you in the papers
I'll see you out past the breakers
Same smile you've had since you were five"

[Chorus]
'Cause we're just so fucking tired
Of explaining ourselves
We throw a pill down our throats
Or ourselves into the ocean
'Cause half our friends are dead
The other half are depressed
In this budget-rate life
The borderline is looking thin
[Interlude]
Borderline's looking thin
Borderline's looking thin
We throw ourselves into the ocean

[Bridge]
I know life is long enough
Didn't think you'd speed it up
Feel selfish that we still want you alive
The memorial wasn't bad
Some people tried to understand
Thought you were complaining
But we weren't listening

[Chorus]
'Cause we're just so fucking tired
Of explaining ourselves
We throw a pill down our throats
Or ourselves into the ocean
'Cause half our friends are dead
The other half are depressed
This budget-rate life
The borderline is looking thin
So we throw ourselves into the ocean
