Hey boxelder, where'd you go?

[Hook]
Caught me talking to myself again

I will always sink, I will never swim
It's the game I play, it's the course I curse
A constant captive at my worst
When I'm at my worst
When I'm at my worst
When I'm at my worst
Hey boxelder, take me with you
Hey boxelder, take me with you
