lyrics

Cigarette smoke
Soiled and beer soaked
This is my scene
One more month where
I’m past due and fully broke
Hey that’s just me

Try to keep from burning out
But it probably won’t take long
On the verge of breaking down
Please correct me
If I’m wrong

Another night at the dive
Out past bar close
What’s in it for me
You could say that I’m tired and it’s gettin old
But that would mean defeat

You’re turning in while I’m turning up
Please excuse me, I’m allowed
I’m hangin in but not hanging tough
My company feels like a crowd

Ive been hiding from myself and from everybody else
try to keep my nose clean, it’s harder than it seems
You know I hate to be a buzz kill
when im having so much fun
Best to keep your distance
I promise I’m almost done
I deflect, I’m just too proud
Gotta quit my messin around and
Slow down

Leave me alone
I told you I’d call when I’m ready
I’ll sit by my lonesome and wait til my head
Ain’t so heavy

I keep lying to myself and to everybody else
Swear this time it’s different
Whatever that means
Yeah I hate to kill my buzz
I’m not having any fun
Please don’t be so distant
I told you that I’m almost done
Please forgive my foolish pride
I’m taking it all in stride
Gotta slow down
