Days Long AF 04:00
Days that are long as fuck you know seems to be the norm now Days that just keep on fucking me Welcome to your normal, your normal world And I’ve got a lot that I can say but mostly I just mumble And I’ve got a lot that I can do but mostly I just stumble through this world You won’t be heard You grind the job You flip the bird And you try your best to be grateful and shield yourself from the hateful, hate filled words you don’t deserve Days that are long as fuck you know Every day is Monday Days that just keep on fucking me and every night is Sunday scaries now And I’ve got a lot that I can say but mostly I just mutter And I got a lot that I can do but mostly I just shutter out this world You’re gonna crack one day and scream in their face They’re gonna get what’s theirs Oh that bitter taste And I got a lot that I can say But mostly I just mumble And I got a lot that I can do But mostly I just fumble for the loss Darling, who’s your boss? And sweetie no offense I won’t pay the cost

The Habit 04:20
If you insist, then I’ll give you the deets Let’s take it from the top Here take a seat It started when you left home and that habit has a trigger of being alone When your day’s been total shit, get lit Don’t be pissed, this was all my own will You didn’t leave a void that I needed to fill It just unraveled when I left home and that habit has a trigger of being alone When your night's been total trash, get smashed And love your haze Get fucked up piss away And you try (and they try) And you try (and they try) to pretend Cause this life getting high is that lie that hide and defend Don’t let the habit win And so it sits whenever life gets too hard We coexist like train tracks and stalled cars and it haunts me like a fucking ghost Yes I can’t say no, my common sense is toast When your plans just go up in smoke, comatose Get drunk And love your haze Get fucked up piss away And you try (and they try) And you try (and they try) to pretend That this life getting high Is that lie that hide and defend Don’t let the habit win Just let the habit win Don’t let the habit win

Dude, Chill 03:52
I gotta practice gratefulness more than I brew hatefulness I should be an optimist instead I expect the worst Fake smiles make me crazy just say what’s on your mind And I just project happiness but deep inside is loneliness Cause I’m a fool that struggles with The ups & downs of life Hey guy, I’m going crazy Dude, chill it’s alright I gotta be more honest with The people that I promise shit I should be a pessimist And know I’ll fuck it up Yes friend, I’ve got you covered Hell no, I’m not alright I gotta practice gratefulness I should be an optimist I gotta be more honest with The ups & downs of life
4.
Foolishly just stormed out pissed off And you went back to sleep the night And I was as stubborn as my old man That was such a stupid fight What. The. Fuck. And I paced and bitched and boiled And I drank away the night And I have nothing that I’m proud of Except you my perfect wife Light of my life And we all make some bad decisions But I’ve made more of my share And I’m as stupid as a teenage kid And I can feel your icy stare Saying “Please shut up.” So I will pour gas on the fire And won’t look back tonight Because there is nothing that I’m proud of So I will piss away my wife And this is when I crash the van And this is where I die?
