to function is almost impossible with the spinning words rattling
without a hit to calm them feelings overcome
and the angel that tries to push it away gets murdered
and control is once again destroyed
and this seems like every day it gets worse
so i sit and watch the rain fall and hope it goes away
but 12 long hours set the circle of another day

another 10 pounds gone
convenient that it's lost
the clock goes winding down
suggested tragedy

i cut my wrists to save myself
so every day i have a personal reminder of my mistakes
wrapping hands around your throat where i used to kiss your neck
squinting to pull the image clear just distorts the picture more
you'll be there when i denounce the existence of me
driving through this ocean town only makes my heart beat harder
and we can't recollect what the problem was
so welcome home

another 10 pounds gone
convenient that it's lost
the clock goes winding down
suggested tragedy

sinking in the sand, break away
i know i can't be right, break away

when you have no expectations, you can't be let down
when you have no expectations, you can't be let down

peeling hearts like apples
you shouldn't be allowed to breed
words so misconstrued
some prescriptions can't be filled
