about

A broken glass mind in a bottle of depression.

lyrics

I woke up to a lady with a question
Ask thou shalt receive but I never asked for lessons
On how to be free or how to acquiesce
To a broken glass mind in a bottle of depression

And in a word I spit out all the hatred
At a songbird with an anger that is sacred
And this is the key to hiding from the pressure
When a one track mind is an eight track statement

Said, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
Come watch the fire burn as I swallow my aggression

‘Cause you want it
You got
Enough
Then I’ll take it
You want
To learn
Rough
Then I’ll give it

Watch me burn while I get so high
Turn from me when you see me crying
Take me down to the malibu beach
Where I spill my guts on the empty streets

You think you taught me all I know
You think you taught me all I know
You think you taught me all I know
But the lesson in the end is a short episode

And you’re only gonna find me
If I’m gonna stay
And I’m only gonna stay
If you’re gonna go away
And this is how it goes
When you’re always being chased
By the bullet in your stomach
Trying to cut you from the race

Now I woke up to a lady with an answer
Covering the cuts with a nicotine plaster
Guess that’s the key to fixing this mess
When I drown my fears in a silk cut vest

And it’s ringing like a bell, yeah
More pain than I can tell you,
And it’s ringing like a bell
And it’s ringing like a bell
And it’s ringing like a bell

Said, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
Come watch the fire burn as I swallow my aggression

‘Cause you want it
You got
Enough
Then I’ll take it
You want
To learn
Rough
Then I’ll give it

Watch me burn while I get so high
Turn from me when you see me crying
Take me down to the malibu beach
Where I spill my guts on the empty streets (x2)
