Every God forsaken morning I snooze my alarm
And resist the urge to call myself lazy for it
And every waking moment I feel hunger
And I summon every ounce of will i have to ignore it
My back against the floodgates
Trudging through the mud of my mind
Sipping on day old coffee
Wondering what else I left behind
If only other people heard what I say to myself
So I'm saying it out loud and hoping that it helps
Every god damn afternoon
I suffer through the urge to glue
My eyelashes together out of boredom
And every breath I breathe I wheeze
And wonder if I'm dying
Or if I'm just being dramatic and ignore them
The existential crises
Trudging through the mud of my mind
Sipping on day old coffee
Wondering what else I've left behind
If only other people heard what I say to myself
So I'm saying it out loud and hoping that it helps
Every fucking Friday night
I rail against the anxious fright
And I wonder if I′m just a simulation
Every choice and every hug
And every tearful act of love
Could be a figment of my own imagination
My back against the floodgates
Trudging through the mud of my mind
Sipping on day old coffee
Wondering what else I've left behind
If only other people heard what I say to myself
So I'm saying it out loud and hoping that it helps
