lyrics-
walking downtown alone
when i stumbled into someone
i haven't seen in a long time
probably since high school
they asked my how I've been
worse fucking question of all time
I tell them I'm good but they never understood
i was lying, I'm always lying
lie to myself, to my friend, to my family
they never understand me and how I'm never in the wrong
its probably why i am where i am today
why i cannot stand up straight and face the music
i hate music
not that kind of music, but like heavy conversation
about the future and my past and all the thing i won't have back

and i got problems
like everybody does
and i know that I'm not special
like they told me i was
I'm just a man and i got these hands
but i don't know how to use them
they're useless
i can't build shit
how do you expect me to build a life
when i can hardly hang a light
or get the blue prints right

so ill just drink from the bottle
and swallow my guitar
and pretend like the words I'm singing are coming from the heart.
