lyrics

I feel like there's a target on my head
painted on the back of the last thing you never said
I made peace with my demons, and god knows I won't be kneeling
to pray for his forgiveness, he's the one that put the feelings in it
you want my two cents? here's a dime for a diamond
and a bruised sense of what it means to be close-minded
I'm a ruined watch that won't keep time and
make me move it
the hands that won't stay wind
I'll just keep doing what I do
until you arrive, old ironsides
It appears I would jump into traffic
just to feel the reaction, just to get the tears intact and
freeze 'em, stare at the happenstance
take the guillotine to my reasons
and still here I stand
I'm feeling a bit lopsided
they cut my face off
fed it to rotweiler's
and then they faced off
I'll rot while I stay soft
if you parse my language
it's based off the same shit
you explained in basic
something has to happen and be the impetus
for an adverse reaction

They ask me to read between the lines
but it's fast heat, never cold enough to attach
only ashes fall from the cigarette, it's not a habit
it's a way to deal with my stress
I wouldn't have it if I were truly blessed
these blisters show how much pain I put in
to reach a par of going broke
and the same can be writ
for all the time I lost in nope
all the hope is being bolted down
I lack the tools to remove it and
my schooling is slow as sound
as fast as light I want to be
but I've been passing years in quantity
Don't you see?
