Sitting around, no work today
Try pacing to keep awake
Laying around, no school today
Just drink until the clock has circled all the way

It's late afternoon, as you walk through the rooms
of a house that is quiet
except for unanswered telephones
You stand near the sink
you mix up a drink
You think you don't want to pass out
where your roommates could find you again
Stumble 'round the neighboorhod, nothing to do
You're always looking for something
to sniff smoke or swallow
Calling over next door, see what they've got
But you would settle for anything
that would make your brain slow down or
stop this circle of thoughts you chase
before they catch back up with you
And your parents notice your thinning face
All the weight you've lost
All the weight youre losing
You said "I'm done feeling like a skeleton
no more sleep walking dead."
You're going to wake from this coma
You're going to crawl from this bed you've made
Stop counting on the camera
that hangs around your neck
cause it will never remember what you choose to forget.
And you try to find one source of light
try to name one thing you like
You used to have such a longer list
And light, you never had to look for it
But now it's so easy, it's so easy to
it's so easy, it's so easy to
second guess everything you do
until all you want, all you want is to
finish this half empty glass
before the ice all melts away
This feeling always used to pass
seems like it's every day
seems like it's every night now
