30 FOOT FALL - Better Off Dead lyrics

rate me

I woke up surprised and disappointed<br>

to find out I was still me, <br>

Last night should've killed me.<br>

Took a shower couldn't scrub it off<br>

Tried to scream, I could only cough<br>

I can't trust myself to be my own friend.<br>

Exhausted by the effort it takes to breathe, <br>

The Whole world is against me<br>

That's what I belive, <br>

don't waste your empathy on me<br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus]</i><br>

I'm through puttin one foot in front of the other<br>

I'm do wanna run for cover <br>

From the moment I wake up til I'm <br>

starin at the ceiling trying to sleep<br>

I wonder if I have a soul to keep.<br>

<br>

Voices in my head will not turn off<br>

There's a heavy weight on top<br>

of my chest today, <br>

I don't want it to go away because,<br>

the moment I let down my guard, <br>

life will hit me twice as hard<br>

My mistake, I thought I could have<br>

just one day off<br>

From pushing boulders up steep hills,<br>

playin in traffic for cheap thrills <br>

I don't know what to do<br>

that's why I'm tellin you that<br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus]</i><br>

<br>

Sometimes there's nothing on my mind<br>

but everything at one time<br>

Find me sliding backwards down<br>

to where I don't want to be found<br>

Stop with these tests give me some rest<br>

My heart is beating right out of my chest<br>

I do believe I have a soul to keep.<br>
