i've been in a room with my regrets strangled cold and queasy now you and all your friends have got your heads screwed on right it brings me down i heard your voice and started to sweate you saw my eyes dart to the corner of the restaurant where we'd make excuses and horrible mistakes we're killing time and saving face everything could work out just fine i might as well be a blind man 'cause i'm sick and tired of feeling around all my life i could stare a whole year away just to hear that there is some good news my heart is open, bleeding i'm suffering from the medicine bottle blues i'm biting the head off small-town loyalty cause i can't take it don't hate yourself for your blackened veins i'm the one that cause the hemorrhage have you heard that love is dead? now remember i'm the one who faded and couldn't handle simple conversation and ended up just singing about it and we don't have to laugh about it or ever tip our fucking hate about it asleep, you're falling asleep my thoughts weight heavy on the coldest shoulder is everyone alive and doing well? i can't wait till i'm older so you won't recognize me running like hell everything could work out just fine i might as well be a blind man 'cause i'm sick and tired of feeling around all my life sleep it all away and dream of something so incomplete i'm drowning in disaster next time i'll live life faster sleep your life away with me
