Crawling South
Say the words I'd never thought I'd say
Was kind of smiling as I saw you walk away
Turn around and let this shit play out
You're in a rush, I'm in no hurry crawling south
Crawling south
Doing the things I'd never thought I'd do
Burning bridges light the way I'm coming through
Bite my tongue this bottle slurred my speech
Pinching pennies, counting blessings I can keep
When I feel small I call your name
When I am small I yell your name
When I feel small I call you name
But when I am tall you'll feel the same
When the beat comes down
And I lost my crown
When they see my frown and they think it's a smile just upside down
When the people laugh, I just don't belong
Last time I felt I did I was probably wrong
And I walk the streets and I walk the walk and I talk the talk
And I pause in mid sentences sometimes, I forgot
I know what's up but I'm down here that much is clear
Know what I want, I don't know what I want!
No books on my shelf
Stripped down, no hooks in my shell
I don't want to pear out,
ended up in hell in a past life too late til I couldn't tell
Licked the last drops now it slurred my speech
Life got me too weak to speak
Self pity when the bottles empty
Glass reflection looking back at me
And if I take the time to analyze the what the when the where the whys
Attentive to my others cries I'll find myself a bit more wise
I can say that now I know, how it feels to drown real slow
Numb to everyone's ego
Can you try and save my soul
Time goes by
I'm losing my head again
Strapped in a jacket yeah
Just me and my dead-end friends
Familiar, familiar faces
Spent a king's fortune for favors
Squandered the chances we gave us
I gave you, you gave me
Crawling south
When I feel small I call your name
When I am small I yell your name
When I feel small I call you name
But when I am tall you'll feel the same
Was kind of smiling as I saw you walk away
Turn around and let this shit play out
You're in a rush, I'm in no hurry crawling south
Crawling south
Doing the things I'd never thought I'd do
Burning bridges light the way I'm coming through
Bite my tongue this bottle slurred my speech
Pinching pennies, counting blessings I can keep
When I feel small I call your name
When I am small I yell your name
When I feel small I call you name
But when I am tall you'll feel the same
When the beat comes down
And I lost my crown
When they see my frown and they think it's a smile just upside down
When the people laugh, I just don't belong
Last time I felt I did I was probably wrong
And I walk the streets and I walk the walk and I talk the talk
And I pause in mid sentences sometimes, I forgot
I know what's up but I'm down here that much is clear
Know what I want, I don't know what I want!

When I am small I yell your name
When I feel small I call you name
But when I am tall you'll feel the same
