lyrics

i've been making lots of change
but my pockets still empty
seems i can't change everything
cos when i wake up i'm still me

dysphoric, addiction to bleeding, i'm cutting
my limbs off one by one
got a job nine to five, it's called staying alive
and the work day is never done

moving ain't no medicine
but staying still ain't no bottle of pills
it's gonna take more than whiskey and cigarettes
to get me outta this landfill

so can i die hitching a ride on a hearse
you're hanging onto a corpse
just to see what my broken bones are worth

i'm a leak in your ceiling
i'm a crack in your windshield
there's no telling when i'm coming down
and making things a mess

i'm a stray dog sitting on your front porch
or a rat under your floorboards
and i'm trying to patch the holes up
but i'm caving under stress
