I woke up in time to break down again Am I dead? In my head You showed up in time to walk out again You just fled As I bled Yesterday I was sober But you never came over Now I'm all hungover And it's all your fault Can you really blame me? I know you'd do the same thing So come on and save me From myself All fucked up and all alone, again Abandoned, isolated I grew up in time to miss out again Jettisoned generation Yesterday I was sober But you never came over Now I'm all hungover And it's all your fault Can you really blame me? I know you'd do the same thing So come on and save me From myself You said you'd be by my side But I knew deep inside All along That you'd lied Yesterday I was sober But you never came over Now I'm all hungover And it's all my fault Can you really blame me? I bet you'd do the same thing So come on, somebody save me From myself

Drinking Alone 02:36
lyrics

All I want is a pint in my hand Go on without me, fuck the band They never even tried to understand I’m becoming someone I can’t stand Alienating potential fans Pushing away all those that try and lend a hand And I’m drinking alone again I’m drinking alone again I’m thinking I’ll phone a friend So they can tell me talk is cheap As I make promises I never keep Sober is where I want to get But even more I just want to forget All the things that make me feel sick and upset Making choices I’ll soon regret Forgetting everyone I just met I know I need to get ahead of this, yet– I’m drinking alone again I’m drinking alone again I’m thinking I’ll phone a friend So they can tell me talk is cheap As I make promises I can’t keep All I want is a pint in my hand Go on without me, fuck the band They never even tried to understand Why-y-y And I’m drinking alone again And I’m drinking alone again I’m thinking I’ll phone a friend Yeah they can tell me talk is cheap As I make promises I’ll finally keep

Spoons and Cups 03:25
lyrics

I ain’t got the spoons and now I’m in my cups Tripping to the moon and I’m all fucked up If I just kill my brain Then I can kill all the pain At least until the morning when I wake up Heart racing and I’m sweating Gonna spend the whole day regretting Why I’m dizzy and sick And wondering if I acted like a dick And my stomach won’t stop aching And my hands won’t stop shaking Who am I faking? Did I make these decisions Or did they make me If I keep being unhealthy then they’ll surely break me This morning I thought the angels might come and take me What a pathetic little legacy

I'm in Recovery (and that's okay) 02:59
lyrics

I’m in recovery And that’s okay Sitting in Group And counting the days I’m sure you all saw this one coming From miles away - HEY! Well, now I’m in recovery And that’s okay I was trying to fill a hole I was trying to feel whole I was dying to lose control I was dying Being hungover everyday Ain’t very attractive Guess it’s time I pick it up And get proactive (Now) I’m in recovery And that’s okay Sitting in Group And counting the days I’m sure you all saw this one coming From miles away - HEY! Well, now I’m in recovery And that’s okay Just one is too much A million’s never enough Just one is too much A million’s never enough Just one is too much A million’s never enough Just one…? Being hungover everyday Ain’t very attractive Guess it’s time I pick it up And get proactive

Co-Occurring Disorders 03:23
lyrics
buy track
Nobody likes you when you’re sick If you can’t perform they just think you’re being selfish Nobody trusts you when you’re sick They just think you like being lazy and worthless No one wants to face the reality Of their own mortality They look away and try not to see/believe And then blame you for your disease Oh, please Nobody likes you when you’re sick And they all think you probably somehow deserve it Nobody trusts you when you’re sick But they all secretly hope you did something to earn it Because otherwise, that means that they, too, one day could get sick And that means that this crazy world is just a bit too chaotic I’ve got co-occuring disorders Anarchy raging inside of me Co-occuring disorders At least I’m not bleeding in my selfies

Body Armor 04:11
lyrics
buy track
This guitar is a life preserver It's keeping me from drownin’ in a sea Of alcohol and self-centered self-destruction I can’t hold a drink if my hands are too busy strumming Just get me a CBD Or something sparkly Woah oh, woah oh It would not be a lie If I said music saved my life This guitar is a pacifier Since my brain won’t stop buzzing like a bee And the pain leaves me ragged, sick and tired But in a song I float free from my body Just get me a CBD Or something sparkly Woah oh, woah oh This shit’s gonna make me cry Yeah, music saved my life Woah oh, woah oh I cannot deny music saved my life This guitar is my body armor It’s the one thing in which I think I still believe Through all the loneliness and desperation I can’t sip a drink if my lips are too busy humming Woah oh, woah oh I cannot deny Music saved my life Woah oh, woah oh I probably wouldn’t still be alive
