Live With Yourself

Jumping a sinking ship
I cut the rope too quick, now I'm drifting off to sea
That wasn't long ago
How fast these days can go, now I'm drifting off to sleep again
Without a song to sing along to
What have you left to actually say?
I don't who I still belong to
'Cause the band name on my t-shirt has since faded away, away

A row of empty squares
Deleted, nothing there, and I look ahead for hope
Everything stripped away
Exposed to scrutiny, and I've nothing much to show again
Without some colour on the canvas
I'm looking grey around the eyes
I don't know how much I can handle
When the picture you keep painting won't distract from real life

And I used to drink 'til closing
Still got kicked out all the same
I used to swing my head around, still wake up with the pain
And I used to spend the nights chasing the dawn with fading friends
Now I'm gonna have to live with myself

Can't be fulfilled when there's a crack in your glass
So you keep drinking 'cause the drugs never last
Can't be content keeping your clothes in your car
But you keep running just to find where you are

Watching the party die
Still clinging to the lie, as the cops come rushing in
And nowhere else to go
Can't even think of home, 'cause I'm running out of homes again
Without a photograph to pose for
You're left looking in the mirror
Emptying boxes just to find more
But you know there's nothing there

And I used to drink 'til closing
Still got kicked out all the same
I used to swing my head around, still wake up with the pain
And I used to spend the nights chasing the dawn with fading friends
Now I'm gonna have to live with myself
Now I'm gonna have to live with myself
