It's 2 am and you're drunk again
Sending out a note of desperation
Hoping she'll give you the time of day
But you know you're not on her mind
Sleeping on couches, wearing dirty clothes
What you're going through nobody quite knows
So you put on that smile and you go to the bar
But happiness seems so fucking far
Spent your whole life wearing a mask
Finding happiness inside a flask
Nobody knows who you really are
Distance yourself more, keep them so far but you
Give up on dreams and throw away hope
'Cause the world doesn't help you, it just makes you choke
And you're not sure how much more you can chew
Maybe one more week of this and you'll make it through
Coast through the dim lighting
Hiding emotions you're constantly fighting
Revisiting spaces
Talking through transparent faces
But can you rise above this way of living
When life, it seems so unforgiving
All else has already failed
Still so much more yet to unveil
Continuing mistakes of your father's past
Knowing this reign of mediocrity cannot last
Preparing for everything to come crashing down
Looking for your chance out of this town
But your average life, it comes to a halt
So you wag your finger and point out the faults
You don't say those words that you wanted to speak
Now the tears running down and they're soaking your cheek
They tell you keep fighting, you'll rise above
Through false promises and failures in love
You've hit rock bottom and it's tearing you apart
Swear all you need is a fresh start
