Lately I've been such a mess Smoking more and speaking less Haunting memories from my head oh-oh All my demons want me dead And calluses on my fingertips Snap strings with sounds I reminisce oh-oh It tore me apart seeing you with him But writing this song wont change a thing So lately I've been a mess Smoking more and speaking less Haunting memories from my head ooh All my demons want me dead Wake up, take a breath I've been struggling With getting these words off my chest Yelling out I give up maybe this is just a test The only thing that gets me Are these strings they tell the past But let me try Let me try Let me try I've been such a mess and that I can't deny My demons want me dead Well, they should get a life This is therapy wouldnt get it if you tried but But I'll play guitar until I'm dead 'Cause it'll stick by me until the end So lately I've been a mess I've been a fucking wreck Lately I've been such a mess Smoking more and speaking less Haunting memories from my head oh All my demons want me dead
