White Flag

White Flag

Just can’t seem to get it right
It’s got me keeping odd hours
Watching my blood spiral down the drain
After a nose bleed in the shower
I’m not asking any questions at the moment
Because I’m afraid of the answers
Just let me drown in this shot glass
And throw bills at these dancers
This is not the life I wanted to live
Just playing what’s been dealt
Rapidly running out of fucks to give
So here’s one to my health
Dousing my bridges in gasoline
And I’m lighting a match
Life just keeps on moving
And it’s going way to fast
There isn’t anything that I can do
To make being me any easier
Just end up losing touch
Growing colder and meaner
Getting so lost seems the realist form of tragedy
I can’t even find myself
I don’t even care anymore
Why should anyone else
Put me back in the bottle
I don’t want to fight anymore
Let me go a ghost of the battle
That fell not knowing what I was fighting for
