lyrics

Lately I've been feeling like I'm Kurt Cobain
Pain resonating from my stomach to bullet penetrated in my brain
Still I maintain
And tell myself that maybe soon I'll change
By facing all the problems that I wallow with in vain
I don't really think that I'm patient enough
To deal with all the pressure thats building up
If left to my devices I self destruct
Maybe I'm just tired of giving up
I have no fear of dying
More the thought of not living to my potential
Or worse
Not even trying
I'm sick of always sitting on my ass
And never acting like I'm worth more
Than the excuses I rely on
I tell my self I'm comfortable
Comfortable with the struggle affording my bills
They're more important
Than the dreams I've always chased
Making music and recording
I go to sleep and live it
But still wake up every morning
To alarm clocks
Telling me I'm late for work again
There's got to be a way to stop this pain
Monotony is not in me
I'm missing when I used to be
Free

Going 95 through the city lights
And I'm not slowing down
Illuminated like the star light
But still I can't be found
If you're living then you're living
You gotta stay living
Just breathe
Going 95 through the city lights
It'll be alright

Misunderstood
Yep thats what I tell myself
The truth is that I probably got a problem with my mental health
Living in a constant back and forward struggle
All I'm looking for is trouble
That's what they tell me yeah I guess they know me
Drowsy and irritated from all this pill taking
Now I'm fighting addictions to prescriptions
But I still take them
Chemically altered personality won't fix shit
A friend is all I really need
Cuz I've been going through some things in my mind
Don't no one pay me no time
Too scared to look in my eyes
I tell them all that I'm fine
But I'm lying
Desperately now I am trying
To find a way out
Wheres the way out
Whats the way now
No I can't see how
Thoughts are constant on my brain
Too loud
And I can't break out
Head is heavy
Heart is heavy
Hands are ready
But unsteady
If I don't make it back
I pray you please forgive me

If I don't make it back then please forgive me

Going 95 through the city lights
And I'm not slowing down
Illuminated like the star light
But still I can't be found
If you're living then you're living
You gotta stay living
Just breathe
Going 95 through the city lights
It'll be alright
