Day dreamin' to Lucy land Lucidly scramblin' wakin' myself up Coughing fits and cancer sticks again Bet I'm back on my bullshit my friend I know you expected nothing less But I can't make do and mend
Remember when I wasn't so fixated with worry or tracking my loss in dividends? Yea I can sport you a smile but I feel deep down it's all pretend And now I fear the end 'Cause maybe I'ma end Up alone somewhere for mental care in an institution
All these thoughts that run through my brain I can not contain 'em I'm going insane All of this fear that rots at my brain Fuckin' me up, burnin' me down, lead me astray
All these thoughts that run through my brain I can not contain 'em I'm going insane All of this fear that rots at my brain Fuckin' me up, burnin' me down, lead me astray
I've been in a daze for days Stuck in a haze as I age My record skips I'll blaze it away in haste just so that I can press play
This wave that I'm stuck on Oh, where did I go wrong? I don't belong Think it won't be long I'm already singin' my swan song Each time the flashbacks occur They lash back worse And I know these just words But the panic'll set in before I finish the verse
I can't catch my breath In over my head Sink in my bed with the feeling of dread Contemplating takin' my medication Just dead instead, what a thought, now I'm pacing Back and forth Like a clock on the wall As the hour hand falls And I sweat in withdrawal
I'm growing impatient of waiting for the end I'm creating
Drowning I forgot how to tread Drowning I'm sinking in my head
Drowning I forgot how to tread Drowning It's consuming me and soon I'll be dead
