it's over

i get up

and it's over

it's always over

it's raining and i'm burned

and it's late and you're gone

and i can barely remember

anything i did or said

or how i lost another week

there must be something going on...



a nagging sense of shame

i can't explain

an acrid taste of smoke and blood

and tears and drugs

and every inch of me is raw

and it's always fucking over

it's raining and i'm blind

and it's late and you're gone



i can't do this anymore



keep getting there

it's over

it's always over

it's raining and I'm cracked

and it's late and you're out

and i can't quite remember

anything i did or said

or how i lost another year

there must be something coming down...



a sweetly sour unease

it's like a tease

a broken dream of guilt and fear

and spit and steel

and every piece of me in pain

and it's always fucking over

it's raining and i'm cold

and it's late and you're out again



run my head around it

like i know i really miss her

"but i always want to do it now"

she told me in a whisper

i try so hard to place it

wonder why i really feel it

when to send the pretty flowers

maybe helps her to believe it



run my tongue along it

oh the taste is something sicker

"but you know you have to do it now"

she told me in a whisper

it only takes a second

but the second lasts forever

"close your eyes

and let me take you down... "



and i get up

and it's over

it's always fucking over

it's raining and i'm wrecked

and it's late and you're...



no i can't remember

anything i did or said

or how i lost another life...



i lost another life

oh i can't do this anymore



no

i can't do this anymore....
