Eight straight days
Living off cold pizza
Flat brand name cola
Like discount anesthesia
I can hardly stand up straight
You wonder how
Thanks for the concern
But I'll stick to the floor now
The TV
Is for sound
It's quiet
When I'm down
Well come back anytime
If you can stomach me
I know you need the cash
And I need the company
Oh I'll try to power through
Since you're not coming back
I see the worst of myself in you
I think you should work on that
I get what I deserve
And I reap what I sow
If I have to go alone
Then I won't go
Everyone else is gone
And left me on the brink
And I don't think I care
'Cause I don't think
Oh your conscious has
Chained you to the floor
Now you're stuck with me
Staring at the door
Oh don't try and get me help
And don't try to leave town
'Cause I'm not down and out
No I'm just, down
Oh
Eight straight days
Sinking deeper in my couch
Dead dried out house plants
Now beginning to slouch
There are ghosts inside my head
Haunting and complaining
Just like poltergeist
But far less entertaining
This music
Is too loud
Your friends don't
Want me around
I won't come back
If you want to be free
I need the support
But you don't need me
I'll bury myself in basements
And I'll claim defeat
'Cause I'm ready for a break
And cellar doors never sounded so sweet
But I'll try to power through
Since I'm not coming back
I need
A break
A beat to think
The more I try the more I sink
I get what I deserve
And I reap what I sow
If I have to go alone
Then I won't go
Everyone else is gone
And left me on the brink
And I don't think I care
'Cause I don't think
Your conscious has chained you
To the floor
Now you're stuck with me
Staring at the door
Don't try and get me help
And don't try to leave town
'Cause I'm not down and out
No I'm just, down
I get what I deserve
And I reap what I sow
If I have to go alone
Then I won't go
Everyone else is gone
And left me on the brink
And I don't think I care
'Cause I don't think
Your conscious has chained you
To the floor
Now you're stuck with me
Staring at the door
Don't try and get me help
And don't try to leave town
'Cause I'm not down and out
No I'm just, down
No I'm just, down
