This song is about a three year long struggle with addiction that they know is damaging but can’t seem to end.
[Verse 1]
Every day I've gotta do it
Every morning, every night
If I don't, I won't get through it
'Cause these days pass slowly by
And I realize that it's a problem
But I don't think twice
Take me to my shrink
I need professional advice
[Verse 2]
Thinking 'bout the next time I will
Get the chance to take a hit
And I tell myself it's not a drug
But I'm addicted
And I realize that it's a problem
But I cannot stop
Everywhere I turn
I'm paranoid I'll see a cop
[Chorus]
Save me from this addiction
I can't get out of it, can't reach through it, oh
Somebody pull me up by the wrists and
Dust me off I need to go
Been living through this haze for
Three whole years and slowly counting to four
Don't know how I will make it
But I know that I just can't take it no more
[Verse 3]
Every day feels like the same shit
Over and over again
But it's hard to break that cycle
When it feels like it won't end
And I realize that it's a problem
And I might need help
Why does it feel like my whole life
Has been spent in hell?
[Chorus]
Save me from this addiction
I can't get out of it, can't reach through it, oh
Somebody pull me up by the wrists and
Dust me off I need to go
Been living through this haze for
Three whole years and slowly counting to four
Don't know how I will make it
But I know that I just can't take it no more
[Outro]
Just can't take it no more
I just can't take it no more
