lyrics

Please turn off the lights I need a second to see
Someone stop this ride so I remember to breathe
'Cause it feels like forever since I've slept comfortably
If you're searching for an answer why the hell look at me?

As silently as I can but just as loud in my head as convenience lets me.
I get along but no one gets me
Holding my tongue for those who are sleeping
Holding composure for brothers I am keeping.

Just spent six bucks that wasn't even all mine
And I can't even sleep from this store-bought bedtime
I just stayed up and borrowed four dollars of tar
Took the keys but I don't think I'll make it too far

As silently as I can but just as loud in my head as convenience lets me.
I get along but no one gets me
Holding my tongue for those who are sleeping
Holding composure for brothers I am keeping.
Left alone, I need to breathe, just give me a second
or maybe its a drink or drown, just give me a circus

Let's go!

Stop! Get up! and Go!

Who wrote this book in this cheap hotel drawer?
A shot for every time there are brothers at war
By the time you hit you 80 hundredth day
you better damn sure know what's the meaning of grey.

As silently as I can but just as loud in my head as convenience lets me.
I get along but no one gets me
Holding my tongue for those who are sleeping
Holding composure for brothers I am keeping.
Left alone, I need to breathe, just give me a second
or maybe its a drink or drown, just give some ruckus
