lyrics

no one's ever got the money
no one's ever got the time
they're all stuck staring at brick walls
practicing their line
and I'm afraid that all their futures will be all too bleak
I'm scared for my friend's futures and I'm scared for me

but I see you shiver from the cold in the desert
have another blanket now have another drink
cuz getting fucked up's easy when you feel like you'll never
get to see your family or friends, reach your dreams

but I swear on my life that I won't let this be the last time
I go to bed and wake up feeling worse
but everyone around is getting angrier and bitter
sometimes I think it's better that I'm just a temporary curse on you

I seem to never have the money
feel I never have the time
I'm always looking for a way out
I'm always scared and getting high
and I'm afraid to go three months clean
I'm scared I'll get too angry
I'm scared I'll get too mean

but I see you shiver from the cold in the mountains
have another blanket have another drink
cuz getting fucked up's easy when you're not around your friends
and now you're feeling so alone thanks to me

but I swear on my life that I won't let this be the last time
I go to bed and wake up feeling worse than last night
I'm always getting angry, I'm always feeling bitter
I just need to find a cure

when I come home you lay in bed
say nothing say it all I'm a joke
but everything is spinning by the end of my shower
trip and stumble to find my way home
getting used to leaving more comfortable than staying
the only real life I have is hiding in these notes I play to
talk about the feeling that I never feel like talking about
now I think I've said too much I think I'd better go

but I swear on my life that I'll let this be the last time
I go to bed and wake up feeling oh so sad
and I'll stop getting angry stop proving my mom right
leave them all behind and find you and me a home
