I Am An Island

Mostly, I sleep it off
It's easier in the morning
To shrug off
Forgive me these drunk and pathetic pleas
'cause the night's tragic rambling
Is the next day's apology
So if you can sit tight 'till the sun hits the blinds
We can settle anything
Oh no

Turning on a dime
I just can't trust my instincts
One day my heart beats with passion
The next it waxes black
If I seem a little calloused, I assure you it's just a scratch
So if you can hold on 'till the mood swings are gone
Then we might just have a chance
Oh no

Baby, I quit
I just can't fake it anymore
I'm a dull, jaded, selfish, abusive, dysfunctional fuck-up
I'm needing to be rescued, I'm stranded on myself
If I can't escape from this island I made
I'm afraid I never will
Oh no
