"Whats fucked up is that nothing's ever gonna be alright
Everytime you think you're doing fine
You turn around and see you crossed the line
Find your cleanest dirty shirt
Try to clear your head and then its off to work
Another day is gone
All you can do is keep pulling yourself along
You take some pills and lay down your head
All alone curled up in your bed
Shut your eyes and pretend it all away
Pray to God you make it through another day
Dreaming only makes it worse
So you take the pills and pretend away the hurt
Another day is gone
Another year
How much longer until the end is near
Will I see the light you think
At the end of the tunnel
Or fall like Alice into her rabbit hole
Broken liqour bottles twinkle in the light
Making rainbows on the wall
Shadows creeping in the corners of your mind
You used to be beautiful."
