Time moves slow when I get sober
I never did want you back
But whenever I leave you're pulling me closer
Stuck in the moment
My lens seems out of focus
How can I be mad at it
This life of mine I've chosen
I keep on calling you
Even though I don't need ya
We used to link almost everyday
Now I think we need breathers
Put my trust in this filter but it won't fill the void that you left
Was just a boy when we met
You helped me stop the noise in my head
My parents never did like you maybe they judged you way too quickly
My backpack smells like teenage spirit
I bet if I'm there you're with me
I know I could turn to the drink these days
This rum ruining my kidney
Amnesia or purple haze it's all the same when you kiss me
Time moves slow when I get sober
I never did want you back
But whenever I leave you're pulling me closer
Stuck in the moment
My lens seems out of focus
How can I be mad at it
This life of mine I've chosen
I keep on calling you
Even though I don't want you back
Swear I'm better without ya
Only a matter of time till I relapse
I tried to pass off as nonchalant
But you controlled how I felt
You seemed bright when things went wrong
That's just the cards I was dealt (I'm folding)
Lick it and fold it
When we ran out of them silvers
Cardboard all in this filter had me yearning for something realer
I got disassociation issues around the same time that I met you
Ten for lunch but I'll buy this food
'Cause that's the lengths that you punch me to (I'm done)
Time moves slow when I get sober
I never did want you back
But whenever I leave you're pulling me closer
Stuck in the moment
My lens seems out of focus
How can I be mad at it
This life of mine I've chosen
