Dig Down Deep

I couldn't wait to waste my life
Like pulling teeth to get my head straight, so why try?
Calling out the devil is one thing, facing him is another
I let it reach the limit, give it just a little bit
In time I'm sure you would admit that you had hardly suffered

So chin up
The gun to your head wasn't even loaded
Look what you're made of
Let that thought take you away
As I drift into another escape

See this through
Just once is all I ask
I'm sick of failing you
So breathe, just scream
Do what you need
To dig down deep

This quickened pace is not much fun
My legs are weak from all this
Buried burden burrowing
Beneath my will, and now I'm done

This run was good but I was mistaken
I think I finally see exactly what I need
To prove our fuckin' seat
At the table wasn't given, it was taken

And I'll bet my bottom dollar, I'll follow blind
Can't get my feet wet or leave my baggage behind
As I slowly snuff the fire you made
I'll fade into a useless escape

See this through
Just once is all I ask
I'm sick of failing you
So breathe, just scream
Do what you need
To dig down deep

I see ghosts that just won't let go
This complacency is getting quite old
I reached in but nothing took hold
I'm lost it seems or so I've been told

See this through
Just once is all I ask
I'm sick of failing you
So breathe, just scream
Do what you need
To dig down deep
So breathe, just scream
Do what you need
To dig down deep
