The sun goes round

The ship sinks down

Oh, down, down, down, down, down, down, down

The bird can’t fly

He’s bound to die

In time, time, time, time, time, time, time

"Check engine" light came on hours ago

Man, this shit is so powerful

Big tension

I’m still headed that direction

No self love, no affection

Just to wreck ship

I got weak-willed bones

And I’m sinking deep into a sink hole of clothes

I’m looking at my photograph on the shelf

And starting not to even recognize myself

My car’s gonna be so broke down

For the pint that I just gulped down

I don’t need a coke and I don’t need a roller

Just to be lifted like I’m on a rollercoaster

Man, might as well put me in the toaster

Burnt up bread like the holy ghost roasted

Check no, for religion while I’m tripping

I need Sunday school, but I just keep skipping

Man, I’m burning to ashes

I’m getting too angry just to stay passive

I’m thinking about leaving

But I need another drink

Or I'ma keep on heaving; there’s no way to get past this

The sun goes round

The ship sinks down

Oh, down, down, down, down, down, down, down

The bird can’t fly

He’s bound to die

In time, time, time, time, time, time, time

Oh yeah, I was just fucking around

I’m too young

I’m much too young to drown

While I’m passed out and the ground just caved in

Face pressed down on stone cold pavement

That’s some dedication to the bottle

It’s fun medicine, but it’s getting hard to swallow

My drinking friend, oh he thinks that I’m faking it

But now I’m sick and he’s still vacant

I’m getting too worn out to be racing

To the liquor store when there’s nothing left to pour

Now I’m tracing, my mistakes need erasing

So I could be awakened and make it

Time spent drunk is time spent wasted

Time spent high is time that’s jaded

Let’s face it I’m breaking

I don’t want to be faded

And I’m close to being taken up

The sun goes round

The ship sinks down

Oh, down, down, down, down, down, down, down

The bird can’t fly

He’s bound to die

In time, time, time, time, time, time, time

90 pounds and I’m shrieking

My friends are here now and they are plain freaking

My head's all weird, I’m bleeding

They instilled some fear and now I’m tweaking

There’s no sleeping and I’m weakened

So they got me off that

I had the coughs for some more cough syrup

My skin was crawling up

What have I become?

A young grump crying for a bottle of rum

1 month clean, oh I think that I got this

Following these people around like they’re prophets

3 months solid, 5 months locked in

6 months, doesn’t seem like I had a problem

12 months, I’m like a rocket

No one is gonna stop this

I got a little faith and I’m on this

"Check engine" light 12 months ago

Man this shit is so powerful

No tension

I’m not headed that direction

I’ve got self love, I’ve got friendship

The sun goes round

The ship sinks down

Oh down down, down, down, down, down, down

The bird can’t fly

He’s bound to die

In time, time, time, time, time, time, time

The sun goes round

The ship sinks down

Oh down, down, down, down, down, down, down

The bird can’t fly

He’s bound to die

In time, time, time, time, time, time, time
