Woodgrain
Chop the beast down
Yes leave naught but a stump
Count all the rings for the years
I fucked up
If I'm half of the man you had hoped I'd become
Half it again for the fungus and rum
Where I hide
Pretend I was alive
In the wisdom
The comfort
As fleeting as trust
Peace for frustration
Trade love for disgust
I can't kill all that's chained up inside of my gut
It's kept in a trance if I'm fucked up enough
And I try
But my will does subside
I'm not living for you
Passed out on my kitchen floor
Trying to drown what makes me wanna die
And don't leave me alone
Stay by my side
Want to wake up
To a face I'll recognize
And I'll recognize you
Bet I'd recognize you
Sense in my forehead and love in my chest
Levels affected by what I ingest
Though I fly by the wings on my family crest
I'll die with the sins I refuse to confess
Won't confide
In a man from the sky
I'm not living for you
Passed out on my kitchen floor
Trying to drown what makes me wanna die
And don't leave me alone
Stay by my side
Want to wake up
To a face I'll recognize
And I'll recognize you
Bet I'd recognize you
Yes leave naught but a stump
Count all the rings for the years
I fucked up
If I'm half of the man you had hoped I'd become
Half it again for the fungus and rum
Where I hide
Pretend I was alive
In the wisdom
The comfort
As fleeting as trust
Peace for frustration
Trade love for disgust
I can't kill all that's chained up inside of my gut
It's kept in a trance if I'm fucked up enough
And I try
But my will does subside
I'm not living for you
Passed out on my kitchen floor
Trying to drown what makes me wanna die
And don't leave me alone
Stay by my side
Want to wake up
To a face I'll recognize
And I'll recognize you
Bet I'd recognize you
Sense in my forehead and love in my chest
Levels affected by what I ingest
Though I fly by the wings on my family crest
I'll die with the sins I refuse to confess
Won't confide
In a man from the sky
I'm not living for you
Passed out on my kitchen floor
Trying to drown what makes me wanna die
And don't leave me alone
Stay by my side
Want to wake up
To a face I'll recognize
And I'll recognize you
Bet I'd recognize you
