A Fresh New Hell

This morning drive grinds to a halt
Car crash emotions overflow
Take me to a place I don’t wanna go
How do you make sense of all of this
Time, money, life and self purpose
Is it all really worth it?
Are we selling ourselves to live?
It makes no difference who you are vs. who you were
When no one gives a shit about the scars you wear
(Or how they’re earned!)
Or how they’re earned, sell your seconds nine to five
You’re on the clock ‘till you fucking die
Or are we all just wasting our time?
Each day is a turning page in a book you fucking hate
Scan it all over again, let it all just dissipate
Each day is a turning page in a book you fucking hate
Scan it all over again, let it all just dissipate

I’m driving on broken lines
Swerving side to side
The check engine light’s been burning my eyes for days
Destination is unknown
I just know that I can’t go home
Not in this state of mind, not in this fucked up haze
And life crashes by
Like headlights in the rearview
Gaining faster
Gaining faster
Gaining faster
On you!
I’m running from the flashing lights
With no escape in my sight
They tell me if I pull over now they can make this go away
It’s easier said than done
I really can’t be the only one
Who doesn’t know the rules in this game
And life crashes by
Like headlights in the rearview
Gaining faster
Gaining faster
Gaining faster
On you!
Runaway from everything
You, swore you’d never be
Run, away from everything
You, swore you’d never be
Run, away from everything
You, swore you’d never be

It’s New Years Eve and I’m feeling older than ever
I think I’ll blame it on the weather and how it refuses to change
Let’s raise a glass to another year gone down the gutter
Raise another and another until we’re blacked out on the floor
I feel like I’ve been here before
(Another night another floor!)
A past life, a faded memory
I can’t restore
It’s nights like these when I can barely keep it together
My bones are breaking beneath the pressure of carrying social norms
Let’s raise a glass to another year gone down the gutter
Raise another and another until we’re blacked out on the floor
I feel like I’ve been here before
(Another night another floor!)
A past life, a faded memory
I can’t ignore
One! Two! One two three four!

Don’t wanna close my eyes
I’m not going to sleep tonight
Cause dreams bring me anxiety and more reasons to get high
I don’t wanna speak tonight
I just wanna sit in silence
Cause silence brings tranquility and you know better than I
Let’s not sleep tonight she said
We’ll just hold our eyes open
Until the morning sun comes up and turns our demons into dust
I’m not sleeping
And I’m not leaving!
Don’t wanna close my eyes
I’m not going to sleep tonight
Cause nightmares look a lot like dreams when you can’t open up your eyes
I don’t wanna speak tonight
I just wanna sit in silence
Cause silence brings tranquility and you know better than I
That your brain can move too fast sometimes!
Let’s not sleep tonight she said
We’ll just hold our eyes open
Until the morning sun comes up and turns our demons into dust
I’m not sleeping
And I’m not leaving!
Yeah I’m not leaving!

Birds of Prey

There’s a bird outside on the power lines
Across the street from where my head lies
Summer’s gone but still he sings his songs
His flight due south feels too long
So I grab my smokes, I put on my coat
I’ve got to try and be less jaded
I’ll stand outside with a will to fly
But clipped wings keep me from escape-
I’d trade my soul and all I own
If it meant that I could escape this
Town I’m in, long forgotten friends
This house, this fucken basement
So I grab my smokes, I put on my coat
I’ve got to try and be less jaded
I’ll stand outside with a will to fly
But clipped wings keep me from escape-
Birds of prey, fly away
I’m just a swallow singin’ in a winter rain
Birds of prey, fly away
I’m frozen in this idle state, frozen in this idle state
I don’t feel myself these days
Everyone else flew south
But here I stay singing without meaning
Sleeping but not dreaming
Flying but not leaving
Flying but not leaving!
Birds of prey, fly away
I’m just a swallow singin’ in a winter rain
Birds of prey, fly away
I’m frozen in this idle state, frozen in this idle state
I’m frozen in this idle state
