Lead Mentality

He spins a record to clear his head
Multiple days waste away in bed
The aggravation emitted from the outside
Stress collapses a beautiful mind

He couldn't hack it
He reached for the drink
I bet he didn't tell her that he
Tried to quit
O he's brought up on a
Lead mentality

Well every time you put it into my mind
(Every time you make me think about it)
Every time you kick me out for the night
(Every time you make me think about it)
Head's heavy you're holding it in
You're dead-headed
And you feel like you're wasted

She smoked her last cigarette
At the back of the park
She wears her jacket like a shirt
Saying the wind
It did her in the dirt and
She gets her thoughts on a silver platter
Every morning in the
Early hours and
Now she's told how to exist
All because of where she lives and

She couldn't clock it
She started to doubt
And all this time she couldn't figure it out
She's brought up on a
Lead mentality

Well every time you put it into my mind
(Every time you make me think about it)
Every time you kick me out for the night
(Every time you make me think about it)
Head's heavy you're holding it in
You're dead-headed
And you feel like you're wasted

Will he always be playing this game
It looks like you've taught him how to hate his own name
He spends the last of his wallet on a bottle of wine
And a bottle of whiskey
He knows not to mix but don't blame the kid
He's got a lead mentality
A lead mentality
A lead mentality

Well every time you put it into my mind
(Every time you make me think about it)
Every time you kick me out for the night
(Every time you make me think about it)
Head's heavy you're holding it in
You're dead-headed
And you feel like you're wasted
Like you're wasted
Like you're wasted
