I remember when I was young you told me not to grow so quick Not heading the warning I always rushed into it Never took your advice You were always such a hypocrite Now I'm suffering from All these consequences Here we are Time is passing between us Day and night In this never ending Cycle I know Time will never stop Psycho micro Seconds always passing I had the embers of life Stuck on the edges of my heart I always knew that I would never end up getting that far I try and try To make myself be higher But still I suffer from All of these consequences Ehhhhhhs ehhhhhs As i sit here watching time pass me by I always wonder what I'm doing wrong I found out I've been wrong all along As I sit here watching time bass me by I always wonder what I'm doing wrong I found out I've been wrong all along

Feeling down but I'm not done Always pushed by the hands of a liar Feeling down but I'm not done Keeping pushing away the hands of the liar We are looking for the time Broken determination and frustration There is no awakening at this time We are in need of more time Do we all sink like this? Until there's nothing left Do we all fall down And drown in it Suffocating Choking on every word we said Do we all sink like thieves? And drown in it Sever the paths between lies and broken minds I am no slave to darkness I'm walking away Sever the paths between lies and broken minds Falling through the cracks in floor Waiting for the Awakening I've sought out perspective But I can't relate There's something in between This is an outrage

Verse 1 Pass the jug, I'm on a holiday Degrees and grades to chase the dreams away I'd rather recognize which of these demons I hold close to me cause I woud really like to know Why I'm fine with living day by day Chorus Bastard nation, crooked vultures, states that don't own me Hungry students starve to death while congress eats for free Watch as numbers flare in office milking off the weak Cashing checks that don't mean shit while printing stacks of green Verse 2 Go to school and get yourself a job I don't like my life inside a box I'd rather spend my time fucking screaming to you about my fucking 20's and my liquor abuse there aint a line that I dont wanna cross Chorus I'm sick of serving tables I'm sick of being in debt I'm sick of waking every morning wishing I was dead I'm sick of falling in love with every girl that walks close to me but in the end they use for my cock I'm sick of giving all my money to the damn police This city of Chicago's always got me on my knees These crooked politicians paving way for their own sytem Where does our money go? Do they even fucking listen?

damn it I think I might've lost you again I wait and wait for my phone to light up I've spent 1/3 of my life thinking about you thinking about us too I'll never be fine without you I spend a lot of time staring at the ceiling in my bedroom silence and blank stares lead me to these daydreams I keep having about you just know I still love you damn it I think I might've lost you again 17 year old me wasn't what you wanted 19 year old me couldn't see us together but recently you've lit the fire inside me I don't want anybody else I spend a lot of time staring at the ceiling in my bedroom silence and blank stare lead me to these daydreams I keep having about you just know I still love you you used to sing me a song that you called Pluto (i miss you more and more everyday) you wanted to run away (are you scared to be with me?) take me with you (will i ever be what you need?) I can't go another day (why won't you love me) without you next to me (why won't you love me) I’ll never be fine without you why won’t you love me
