To the ones who don't have anything else, I'm with you And I'm sorry I wasn't there when it hit you Sometimes we need to remind ourselves That life'll get you when it gets you
Sitting in the same old chair Listening through old blown out speakers Filling up the ash tray Empty bottles piling up under me I don't know The difference between night and day It's dark and cold when I'm awake
Piece another verse together Cut another line Drink to another chorus Smoke again cause I got the time Well maybe one day I can stop wearing this fucking hat Sell a million records and get the rest of my self worth back
I hope that this is the last sad song I write And I hope you know that I'm doing alright Cause by the time you hear this I'll have picked myself back up Living on a little bit less than enough
So I'll watch the clock tick by Tip back and unwind With whiskey by my side Hang a noose with spare time I won't let em see I won't let em see me I won't let em see me, hate me
When you pull every stick like its the last ash you'll ever taste When you're full of the wit that they say will go to waste That is when it's worth it to show them how well you hate This is the time to let them know Their help is too late
So I'll watch the clock tick by Tip back and unwind With whiskey by my side Hang a noose with spare time I won't let em see I won't let em see me I won't let em see me, hate me
I don't know the difference between night and day It's dark and cold when I'm awake Wearing these same old clothes while I pace With blurry vision forgetting the reason I'm in this place Now they're aware In a way that they fear Understanding I won't stop until my words are made clear But I'm here Paying dues with a cigarette and a bottle in my hand
I'd rather get high I'd rather touch em all I'd rather throw a ball at a blank white wall Before I sell my soul To a chump bitch for a sum of money Only concerned by what he gets from me
So I'll watch the clock tick by Tip back and unwind With whiskey by my side Hang a noose with spare time I won't let em see I won't let em see me I won't let em see me, hate me
