lyrics

This is what I’m thinking
Raw as hell not drinking
Sober as hell just thirsty
Done a lot of dumb shit thirsty
Came on too strong too long- forgive me
Zipping up we ain’t through
Been the same since ‘92
Ever since that day
Can’t get it free I’ll beg to pay
It’s better than to be alone
Rejection over being alone
My whole life I’ve been alone
Look at me my soul is gone

This is what I’m feeling
Take advantage - you stealing
Stagger in late to work
Kill my body pad your purse
Boss you’re drunk as fuck - you’ve got the curse
Sit there smoke  watch me work
Feet are bloody my back is hurt
You a doctor diagnosing me
List everything wrong with me
Kiss your ass  - I want this job
Bite my tongue - I love this job
Lift you up - stumble down
Fill your glass - put me down

They be punchin’ holes in you
Punchin’ holes in you
For so long
For so long
They be stickin’ knives in you
Stickin’ knives in you
And then they’re gone
Then they’re gone
And then you're lying in your bed
Pops into your head
How they all left you to die
And then you’re driving in your car
Thought you went so far
Til you’re lying on the floor

You say
“Okay, now what…”
Making the choice not to die
You say “okay now what”
Making the choice stay alive

Liar liar pants on fire
You’re no friend you’re a gas lighter
Throwing all the blame on me
I overstepped a little - not totally
Blood on the wall - meet in the hall
And it kills me I still miss it all
Now I wanna be better
Now I wanna be stronger

I’m angry
You betrayed me
Cut me up
Piece by piece
Thread by thread
The death of your ex
Worse than my dad you said
Come in how my house is dirty
My socks are dirty
Your liver’s dirty
Your lungs are dirty
Always trying to circumvent
But your power’s gone how you gonna dent?
Have a drink you always do
Don’t know if I loved or hated you
Might have been indifferent too
Time has come to say 
See you see you
(And then you’re driving in your car
Thought you went so far
Til you’re lying on the floor)

You say
“Okay, now what…
Making the choice not to die
You say “okay now what”
Making the choice stay alive
I wanna be better…
Be stronger
(Not gonna fill your glass)
I wanna be better…
Be stronger
(Who’s gonna fill your glass?)
