Stimulants
Everything or the back of my eyelids
Holding me awake
Supercharge my mind until I'm too tired
And fall into a dream
Where I'm working out
Tryn' to paint on paper mache
I still see all the news
Through the coats of white I lay
I can't rest on these stimulants
I'm taking everyday
I'm exhausted I'm embarrassed
I got friends out on the TV
Now I'm that guy in bars at night
Half-lidded, watching screens
Saying I remember when
You were just like me
Always filling time
Pouring out my friends a drink
Been thirsty for a while
Wait for someone to pass the cup to me
But the alcohol keeps me up at night
Thinking back to fifteen
When the future still looked bright
And I thought I could do anything
I can't rest on these stimulants
I'm taking everyday
I'm exhausted I'm embarrassed
I got friends out on the TV
And now I'm that guy in bars at night
Half-lidded, watching screens
Saying I remember when
You were just like me
Then you ask me how my day went
I say "busy" you just laugh
You say "nothing really changes"
I say "yeah it really has"
I can't rest on these stimulants
I'm taking everyday
I'm exhausted I'm embarrassed
I got friends out on the TV
Now I'm that guy in bars at night
Half-lidded, watching screens
Saying I remember when
You were just like me
You were just like me
You were just like me
Holding me awake
Supercharge my mind until I'm too tired
And fall into a dream
Where I'm working out
Tryn' to paint on paper mache
I still see all the news
Through the coats of white I lay
I can't rest on these stimulants
I'm taking everyday
I'm exhausted I'm embarrassed
I got friends out on the TV
Now I'm that guy in bars at night
Half-lidded, watching screens
Saying I remember when
You were just like me
Always filling time
Pouring out my friends a drink
Been thirsty for a while
Wait for someone to pass the cup to me
But the alcohol keeps me up at night
Thinking back to fifteen
When the future still looked bright
And I thought I could do anything
I can't rest on these stimulants
I'm taking everyday
I'm exhausted I'm embarrassed
I got friends out on the TV
And now I'm that guy in bars at night
Half-lidded, watching screens
Saying I remember when
You were just like me
Then you ask me how my day went
I say "busy" you just laugh
You say "nothing really changes"
I say "yeah it really has"
I can't rest on these stimulants
I'm taking everyday
I'm exhausted I'm embarrassed
I got friends out on the TV
Now I'm that guy in bars at night
Half-lidded, watching screens
Saying I remember when
You were just like me
You were just like me
You were just like me
