Painkiller

It's too easy letting words come out my mouth
I'll be preaching 'til the sun is going down
When trouble finds me, can I stand behind the words that I've been saying?
Or are they vacant?

Understanding all I do to fill the void
Am I in control or am I just a toy?
God relieve me of my duties as a boy, at your discretion
Is it a blessing?

Couldn't find it in the mazes of my mind
No surprises, nothing showing up on time
Solve the riddle and you'll learn just how to rhyme
Through all the questions
They're never-ending

(Instrumental)

I'll keep writing 'til I empty out the tank
It's a long road and I can't keep looking back
Purplе sunset and it all just fades to black
No hesitation
Just еxhalation

Lately when I say a thing it turns to dust
In a world where nothing ever is a must
No absolutes, no ears to hear the paper story they've been telling
About my failings

I've been looking at it through the lens of love
All I needed was to say that I'm enough
Send a thank-you to below and to above
And to my best friends
For being patient
