lyrics

turn it off, drown it out
i don't want to hear what i'm thinking,
because of these weekly feelings of sinking;
you loved me but you let me go

don't help me up, i know how hard i never tried,
i'm in the back alone, she's taking me home,
with whiskey running out of my eyes,

it's hard containing this surge behind these levees inside me,
these daily dreams of dying,
have got me living life on my knees

in my head i see the both of you wiping the sleep out of your eyes,
and i've been thinking lately i'll vacate soon,
or wipe awake out of my life

bury me deep under the boardwalk with a bottle in my hand,
raise your glass to this horizon,
while my lungs are filled with sand.
