Five Vicodin Chased With a Shot of Clarity

After all this time of asking questions
Of trying to find something to quiet this soul
I’m left alone within my mind
Into this self-made hell I dwell
It’s not as hot as you think
More so dark and cold with no room to breathe

I’m sorry, I don’t think it’s gonna to be ok this time
My heart has skipped its final beat, (it’s beating me down)
Onto the floor. That must mean that the pills are working
The glass isn’t half empty this time
I smashed it on the ground a long long time ago
It shattered when it fell
And I broke the pieces (Each shard’s another reason)
Another way to give up

This skin is so tight (so tight)
That the air (the air)
Can’t reach my brain (my brain)
There is nothing telling my heart to beat any faster
To let me scream for help

I’m sorry, I don’t think it’s gonna to be ok this time
My heart has skipped its final beat, (it’s beating me down)
Onto the floor. That must mean that the pills are working
The glass isn’t half empty this time
I smashed it on the ground a long long time ago
It shattered when it fell
And I broke to pieces (Each shard’s another reason)
Another way to give up

I will never give up
I will never take the easy way out
I will never give up
I will never take the easy way out

The glass isn’t half empty this time
I smashed it on the ground a long long time ago
It shattered when it fell
And I broke to pieces (Each shard’s another reason)
Another way to give up

This is (This is life)
This is (This is struggle)
This is (This is love)
This is (This is war)
This is (This is life)
This is (This is struggle)
This is (This is love)
This is (This is war)
