I can no longer discern Whether the sun is rising Or if its setting inching closer to my own demising Becomes so apparent what's important to me You can say it sounds cliche But friends all come and go away My family’s been here to stay They stuck with me through darker days When I was brownin out And fallin’ out and fuckin’ up They stuck around to help me out And never once gave up on me
I don’t know maybe they should’ve Shit ya know I sure as hell would’ve I’ll never possess the poise It takes to deal with me Cause I’m a thief, a drunk, a cheat, a liar Beneath my deathbed awaits that fire Cause I’ve wasted time Tryin to find what’s so simple to see
That world’s a scary fucked up place To on your own have to navigate So to the people who compose my compass A few words to you
CH. Well I know times runnin out So before ya lay my body down Before ya dress me up And drop me six feet down I wanna make sure that you know I love you and thanks for puttin up With all my shit
We’re all just thrown into this world Expected to exist To carve a niche and carry on Without slitting your wrists But when the stress is just too much To grasp without any support Your mind will splinter Verging on collapse You're walking in a corpse When the chips are down It’s nice to have somebody in your corner Just to have your back And tell you everything will be alright It fucking kills me that I’ve ever Taken my loved ones for granted It’s true what they say You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone
The one thing I fear the most Is losing anyone I care about To only ever get to see them smile in old photographs The scribbles on our epitaphs May not be set in stone I know sometimes it’s hard for me to show it I love you more than you will ever know it
CH.
Well I know times runnin out So before ya lay my body down Before ya dress me up Commit me to the ground
