Absinthe & Love

You've got carbs in your stomach now? I dooo
Yeah livin' in my head, everything I wanna say
Is nothin that i'll speak out loud
Locked away, day after day
And all I wanna do is make you proud
Porcelain, but wearin' thin
The old me died back then
State of mind this state ain't mine
On backroads strugglin'
Wide awake I'm thinkin' about
Past mistakes and current doubt
Quicksand around me and I'm
Diving in
Portraits of my poor traits on full display
Personally I wouldn't mind some empathy
'Cause lately
Living feels like putting my head through a wall
Absinthe and love don't mix
So scared to lose it all
It's not like we haven't been cautious
Pull back the veil to unlock the misery
A canopy of my spent time
Miserably, I see the signs
Am I in the wrong for taking my time
Can you just let it slide
(Let it go)
Portrait of my poor traits on full display
Personally I wouldn't mind some empathy
'Cause lately
Living feels like putting my head through a wall
Absinthe and love don't mix
So scared to lose it all
Is it destiny for us to stumble and
Fall back to the way we were before
Can't grow a tree with just water and lies
Buy more time with a tourniquet in my own mind
Can't live without my own disguise
A fire burning in my eyes
All said is done just repeating
The moments are fleeting say our last good byes
Portraits of my poor traits on full display
Personally I wouldn't mind some empathy
'Cause lately
Living feels like putting my head through a wall
Absinthe and love don't mix it's time to move along
