Bummer

I burned out my light

I didn’t know which way to go

I should’ve just sat tight

Waited for the search party to assemble

I made a handshake deal

Placed a high rolling bet

I came in on the ground floor

I’ve been sinking ever since

It’s a strange and unwavering kind

Digging in and always looking behind

Staring out into the rays of time

Pleasure feels like guilt sometimes

I can’t recall too many things

Without feeling like a joke

Does love ever die

Or just wait to fix what was broken

Is it something I ate

Or is it something you said

My whole body shakes

Under the weight of you in his head

Will there be rewards given out

For sticking to my guns

Dangerous as it may be

It’ll never, never, never

Never be undone

So let me go back

God let me rewind

My poles are reversed

The clocks won’t chime

I mixed up my motives

Trying to make ends meet

The shrapnel from my memory

Came back and threw me off my feet

And suddenly I’m beside you

A decade in the past

The wick is getting shorter now

Everything comes and goes so fast

It’s a bummer that you paid for that

It’s a bummer that I paid for that

It’s a bummer that we paid for that

It’s a bummer that we paid for that

It’s a bummer baby

It’s a bummer baby

It’s a bummer baby

It’s a bummer baby
