Life on a Treadmill

My room faintly smells of vomit
There's no better deterrent
For bringing anyone to it
Like that's a rational reason

Feeling time slipping away
While we've been wasting all these days
Living life on a treadmill
Expending energy but I'm still standing still
I hope there's more to me than what you see
A carefully constructed facade of a being
That's fully functioning

My room faintly smells of vomit
There's no better deterrent
For bringing anyone to it
Like that's a rational reason
Made enough mistakes last night
For a whole years worth of weekends
Every time I wake up thinking
That I am better than this

Three cheers, let's smoke
On the balcony
So we puffed on cigars
And clinked our bottles to victory
Hear, hear!
This night never stood a chance
We gained the upper hand
Finding an ally in moderation

'Cause there's no choice but to implode
Fighting substance with substance
When temptation is screaming
Don't you slow down for nothin'
This past year got away from me
But please believe I'm tryin'
I'll be damned if I'm the only thing
That ruins this dream

My room faintly smells of vomit
There's no better deterrent
For bringing anyone to it
Like that's a rational reason
Made enough mistakes last night
For a whole years worth of weekends
Every time I wake up thinking
That I am better than this

The stain won't come out

I've had my run
Now it's time to settle down
And pick up the scraps of my life
That I've scattered
So this is real now
Give it all to make my all image shatter
To be someone that matters

My room faintly smells of vomit
There's no better deterrent
For bringing anyone to it
So irrational
My room faintly smells of vomit
There's no better deterrent
For bringing anyone to it
Like that's a rational reason
Made enough mistakes last night
For a whole years worth of weekends
Every time I wake up thinking
That I am better than this
I am better than this
Every time I wake up thinking
That I am better than this
