Spectres

Recently I've found myself
Being taunted by the spectres of my future
Saying life is gonna get me
Spurred on by the demon
Standing proud on my shoulder
He holds a loaded gun to my head
No bad omen left unsaid
I take drives to escape
The fuel light's on again
I swear to god
I rolled home that day
I let it all build up
I never alleviate the strain
I just pick up the dead weight

I'm numb to the pain
I just entice it
I just invite it in

And I was never one to fear what life had to throw at me
But now I'm second guessing
Just need a kick in the arse to let me know
That I'm on the right track, won't fight back

The shadow that walks beneath me
Is as cold and empty as I drag my feet
Searching for a place that's better than where I am
I just hope the loose concrete doesn't build up and bury me alive

Numb to the pain
I just entice it
I just invite it in

And I was never one to fear what life had to throw at me
But now I'm second guessing
Just need a kick in the arse to let me know
That I'm on the right track, won't fight back
And I'm pleased to hear
The kids I grew up with have all moved on
While I'm hanging behind, barely alive
I'm just hoping I land somewhere the ground won't break
I hope I land somewhere the ground won't break
