Headroom

I scoop the cracks where the milks turned black
Sour chunks of putrid gunk avoid it all, if you threw it down the jacks
But they dump it down the sink
Gathers in the gutter, let it fester and stink
Paranoid, run my hands through my hair
Blood stained vomit, and phlegm on the chair
Asking ever time why the time won’t fly by
'Cause I'm a nice guy
I live a nice lie

I say it's complicated
To spill your guts out, and stare at what you have created
I wanna feel the motion keep it all inside, I confide in all this black erosion

What's it all worth, what have I got to lose?
A scab muted from the scum in a bruise
Shе tells me I should stop sleeping in my clothes
Filtеr out the frequencies, all I hear are lows
I wait around, and I try to, I try to...
I try to wait it all out, but the doubt has integrated
I say, "hi," burst open my eye stye
Not one for the goodbyes
Man, I'm such a bad guy
I'm wasting away

She asks if I feel better, I'm puking on her sweater
But I'm functioning just fine, don't feel nothing, whatsoever
Slowly waste away in the grey
Another lie, another day (‘nother day)

She asks if I feel better, I'm puking on her sweater
When I say I'm feeling fine, 'cause the truth just might upset her
Barely know myself, throwing rocks to break my smile
Abnormally upbeat in the face of my denial
Barely know myself, do you know yourself?
'Cause I don’t really know myself
Do you know yourself?
I'm functioning just fine
Don’t feel nothing, whatsoever
Scrubbing all the puke from the stitching of her sweater

Paranoid, run my hands threw my hair
Blood stained vomit, and phlegm on the chair
Asking ever time why the time won’t fly by
'Cause I'm a nice guy, I live a nice lie
