56 Lyrics

Another day, another bout with my impatience

To the victor goes the headaches

And a bounty of complacence

As I wobble on my barstool

I compose my inner defence

What could cause a once close friend to be demoted to acquaintance?

Hmmmmm

Now could it simply be the company I kept?

Or is it true my social graces are just that fucking inept?

As this jar of hops' buoyancy drops, my insight plummets too

And it's obvious my new friends don't appreciate my views

As my head space decays

I'll ignore all rapport

And keep stabbing in the dark

I'm just saying

You got me blaming

The world for my shortfalls instead of admitting the truth

It's not a tasty pill at all

I'm on the decline

I took my lifeline

Unravelled it to the point that it can never be saved

Queue the melodramatic fall

Another causeway crushed and crumbled to the sea

I don't do this shit on purpose but revealed a side of me

That is equal parts disturbing, egocentric and morose

When life's got me by the throat

I take a swing and miss

I'm never fucking close

As my head space decays

I'll ignore all rapport

And keep stabbing in the dark

I’m never returning to form

Long gone are the days I could weather any storm

I’m feeling defeated

My glory’s retreated

But I'll keep flying blind cuz I denied the time

To rectify and make it through the night
