Coffin Nails

Summer's cold
I can't do it on my own
Another soul
Restless, waiting to come home
I look in the mirror
I see clearer now that I let all you down
I let myself down, more importantly

They say life is precious
Well I don't get this
Cause no one cares about mine
I couldn't love you
Even if I wanted to
But let's pretend tonight

If somebody told me
I'd be lonely
Lonely on my birthday
Lonely Christmas Day
Lonely that last august
And even lonelier the next May
I would've laughed
I would've laughed

This mental illness is killing me
I'm inviting it willingly
Letting it rule my emotions
Turn swimming pools into oceans
How can I take back control of
My life as I know it
I don't wanna be known as a loner
A cutaway kid never sober
Gotta keep that backwood rollin'
It helps me keep going
When I forget my own notions
And begin to lose my composure
Tell me what is your motive
What is your motive

Take the burning coffin nails to my skin
Burn me down as I burn within
Black my lungs
Grey my tongue
Light me up till I'm numb

Take the burning coffin nails to my skin
Burn me down as I burn within
Black my lungs
Grey my tongue
Light me up till I'm numb
