Chamberlain

The bulkhead door to the basement's still broken
And I know that some day, one of us is gonna fall through it
Why don't we fix these problems in our lives
While we have the chance?

Cuz I know it as well as you do
That you know what will undo you
Be it alcohol or some other fault we
Deal with it the same way:

We ignore our demons
Push them to the back of our heads
Like a bullet to your temple

Because healing
Is harder than
Appeasing them
And hoping that they'll go away

Honesty is a one way street
And honestly, I don't see this working
But life bleeds sweet
Just not for me
Through the bitterness of time
I succumb to apathy

Falling asleep comes as easy to me as
Gravity takes a stone from my hand
But waking up is a fate
Worse than death

And it's hard to find motivation
When you're dealing with indignation;
Self-inflicted, inebriated
Points of view

That I need to try to find
A reason to see in a different light;
Red and blinding foresight

And I think I'll be fine
I just need time to try to
Find a way to cross this

One-way street
Temporary
Self-defeating monotony
But I believe
We can break free
It's just for now we're
Stuck in between
