about

written in 2015 at midnight after a long day of work.

lyrics

The driving motivation from when you first wake up,
is not the same motivation from when you doze off.
And I've been trying to run away from all of my fears,
but my left leg's completely asleep and I'm completely in tears.
'Cuz if I smoked weed for everytime I've been happy in the past week or so
I'd still be the straight edge man you've learned to know.

And I've been thinking about this idea where everyone is dead,
and I've been imagining you all in my weirdly shaped head.
And if for some odd reason that thought were actually true
than the God upstairs would have some explaining to do.
But it's probably not true,and I just need some sleep.
But how can you sleep when all your thoughts are so damn deep?

And I've been thinking of better words to speak out of my mouth.
In the shower with hot water starting north and heading south.
I've come to realize that when I actually talk to you,
I say the ugly truth and that's just not something that I should do.

'Cuz if I smoked weed for everytime I've been happy in the past week or so
I'd still be the straight edge man you've learned to know.
