Quote:

I know I'm not my thoughts
But my thoughts don't know that yet
Sometimes I try to sneak up
On the voice inside my head
I try to meditate, cause they told me it'll help
But the last thing I need is more time alone inside myself
I know I'm not unique, we all got broken brains
Culture recently decided being crazy is okay
And now we all can talk about it on our social feeds
Having a rough day?
Hashtag mental health awareness week

I know that's progress
We don't have to hide no more
But it leaves me wondering why we ain't said this stuff before
Like were we always all crazy and we all just kept quiet?
Are we on the same page with what we're identifying?

And if crazy's the new normal then it's not that crazy, is it?
Cause the word by definition means it sits outside the system
And how can we tell difference between sick and tryna' fit in?
And if everybody's crazy, then who's supposed to fix it?

Quote:

No one told me it could get this bad, this fast
Guess we only hear about the struggle after it's passed
Getting easier to open up, share what we lost
Good to know I'm not alone
But if I'm really being honest

I kinda hope there's something wrong with me
I kinda hope this isn't how it's supposed to be, supposed to be
I pray to god it's not normal
Crying on the floor
I don't wanna do this anymore

[Verse 1]
Walked into our world and made
Horrible sounds
I can still hear them today
(Strangely, they seem)
Beautiful now
Though, they outlast my love

[Pre-Chorus]
Still, each time, I always meant
Every word, every one
Though, in time, they finally bent
Every word, every one, every word

[Chorus]
"I will wait for you," she said
Endlessly
"I will wait for you," so spoke
Misery

[Verse 2]
I returned to you but found
My empty home
The radio told me to stay
(As it burned down)
I sang alone
You will outlast my love

[Pre-Chorus]
Still, each time, I always meant
Every word, every one
Though, in time, they finally bent
Every word, every one, every word

[Chorus]
"I will wait for you," she said
Endlessly
"I will wait for you," so spoke
Misery

[Bridge]
I have been waiting for you
Biding as you taught me to
I have come to relieve you
Of life and love

I will wait for you
I will wait for you
I will wait for you
I will wait
I will wait

[Chorus]
"I will wait for you," she said
(I will wait)
Endlessly
"I will wait for you," so spoke
(I will wait)
Misery

I will wait for you
Wait for you
Endlessly
"I will wait for you," so spoke
So spoke
Misery

[Outro]
I will bite straight through
As I wait for you
Dear
Endlessly

Quote:

[Verse 1]
If she wants to dance and drink all night
Well, there’s no one that can stop her
She’s going 'til the house lights come up
Or her stomach spills onto the floor
This night is gonna end
When we’re damn well ready for it to be over
Worked all week long
Now the music is playing on our time
Yeah, we do what we do to get by
And then we need a release

[Verse 2]
You get mixed up with the wrong guys
You get messed up on the wrong drugs
Sometimes the party takes you places
That you didn’t really plan on going
When people see the track marks on her arms
She knows what they’re thinking
She keeps on working for that minimum
As if a high school education
Gave you any other options, you know
They don’t know nothing about redemption
They don’t know nothing about recovery
Some people just aren't the type for marriage and family

[Chorus]
No mother ever dreams
That her daughter's gonna grow up to be a junkie
No mother ever dreams
That her daughter's gonna grow up to sleep alone
No mother ever dreams
That her daughter's gonna grow up to be a junkie
No mother ever dreams
That her daughter's gonna grow up to sleep alone

[Verse 3]
She’s out of step with the style
She don’t know where the action's happening
You know the downtown club scene
Ain't nothing like it used to be
You reach a point where there’s not a lie in the world
That you could use to make the boys believe
You're still in your twenties
But they keep getting younger, don't they, baby?
She’s not waiting for someone to come over
And ask for the privilege
She can still hear that Rebel Yell
Just as loud as it was in 1983, you know
There ain't no Johnny coming home to share a bed with her
And she doesn’t care

[Chorus]
No mother ever dreams
That her daughter's gonna grow up to be a junkie
No mother ever dreams
That her daughter's gonna grow up to sleep alone
No mother ever dreams
That her daughter's gonna grow up to be a junkie
No mother ever dreams
That her daughter's gonna grow up to sleep alone

[Outro]
No mother ever dreams
That her daughter's gonna grow up to be a junkie
And if she had to live it all over again
You know she wouldn’t change
Anything for the world

[Verse 1]
Your tells are so obvious
Shoulders too broad for a girl
Keeps you reminded
Helps you to remember where you come from

[Bridge]
You want them to notice
The ragged ends of your summer dress
You want them to see you
Like they see every other girl
They just see a faggot
They hold their breath not to catch the sick

[Chorus]
Rough surf on the coast
I wish I could have spent the whole day alone
Rough surf on the coast
I wish I could have spent the whole day alone
Rough surf on the coast
I wish I could have spent the whole day alone with you
With you
With you

[Verse 2]
You've got no cunt in your strut
You've got no hips to shake
And you know it's obvious
But we can't choose how we're made

[Bridge]
You want them to notice
The ragged ends of your summer dress
You want them to see you
Like they see every other girl
They just see a faggot
They hold their breath not to catch the sick

[Chorus]
Rough surf on the coast
I wish I could have spent the whole day alone
Rough surf on the coast
I wish I could have spent the whole day alone
Rough surf on the coast
I wish I could have spent the whole day alone with you
With you
With you

[Bridge]
You want them to notice
The ragged ends of your summer dress
You want them to see you
Like they see every other girl
They just see a faggot
They hold their breath not to catch the sick

[Chorus]
Rough surf on the coast
I wish I could have spent the whole day alone
Rough surf on the coast
I wish I could have spent the whole day alone
Rough surf on the coast
I wish I could have spent the whole day alone with you
With you
With you

Quote:

It took a lot to sell my soul
The same thing happened yesterday
I paid my price, then felt alive
But no pulse is within my veins

Never will I lie and say I'm still alive
Come what may to me, there's something on my side

I'm left with heart, 'cause inside me's gone
Compulsion drives me anyway
I play my part and my part is large
Makes me stronger every day

Never will I lie and say I'm still alive
Come what may to me, there's something on my side

One year and it ain't so bad
I'm trying to see things clearly
The clearer it gets, the more I'm confused
I'm thinking more about blindness
Thinking hard about blindness
Thinking purely of blindness

There's something on my side
