lyrics

How long did it take you to get out of bed this morning?
Did you see the cup of coffee I left out for you,
on the counter top?
Next to all the broken glass,
from all the fallen cups,
liquor dripping like morning.

Do you remember any of last night?
Cross legged, blacking out all alone on your carpet?
Covered in ashes and our fear of you dying.
We're stuck spitting white lies straight out our teeth.

10 minutes in, and I'm fading out.
An attempt to put me to rest.
End the night on fuller house.
2 nights past, and I'm still throwing up.
Struggling to feel just fine.
Patch together pieces of that night

I'll argue the point,
and stay ever stubborn.
Feigning still sharp,
though I've only gotten duller.
Prevent me,
barricade me up with precautions.
I'm rolling towards a rampage of ridiculous proportions

Do you remember any of last night?
Challenging all.
But on call, sitting complacent.
On the ground lying, heard the echo of sighing.
Murmurs from
further than we've ever heard before.

10 am, I'm just getting up.
An attempt to be like the rest,
when my best is never enough.
2 days now, I'm still falling out.
Struggling to keep in line.
Standing still never felt too right.

Do you remember any of last night?
(Challenging all, but on call, sitting complacent.)

Do you remember any of last night?
Were you able to wake up for work on time?
We're all just worried bud,
we all know how life gets tough.
But if it wasn't,
we would never had made the cut.
