You’re a poorly wrapped lie in a sea of truth
And it feels like everyone sees right through
The pressure is building on your lungs
A shit storm hurricane’s just begun
And maybe the moon is out Jittering across the surface
And you feel some welling An urging a purpose
The lapse in judgment worked for a while
But the tattered ends never reconcile
Your quips and barbs are not as sharp
You lost some ground when you wrecked the car
And you pray for the morning Like it will somehow save you
You’re in tatters flailing Looking for a way through
Shouting for a god you don’t believe in anymore
Hoping that the waves won’t carry you back to shore
Shaking loose of your skin and these broken bones
And somehow now it feels like home
The addictions multiplied and piled up
You tried to kick but it’s way too tough
There’s always been some lack in foresight
You carried trouble out to the night
There’s a picture in your pocket Of someone you once knew
You replay every moment The scenes you spun through
It’s like you’re above and you’re looking down
Watching as you thrash and drown
See the horizon to gain your bearings
I know this moment seems so scary
You wrecked yourself like an animal Caught inside a cage
Give into the moment Please don’t be afraid
