lyrics

This world if falling apart all around me
I know my history unfortunately
And the end times never end or so it seems
I don't know what I'm supposed to do
I try to fight the power but it ain't no use
And I'm getting used to always feelin' blue

I try to think of better days but they're all in the past
I keep them in my pocket like a fading photograph
I lost all that I had but it feels so good to feel so bad
I'm a lonesome man and I ain't got nothing to lose

There is a comfort in this solitude
There's a blessing in disguise
I get to know my own loniness
I get to be my own demise
I'm feeling so low down but I take comfort in this sorrow
I could try, try to get high but I'd rather whine and wallow

I try to think of better days but I must have forgot em
When I get my one big hit, it'll be rock bottom
I lost all that I had but it feels so good to feel so bad
I'm a lonesome man and I ain't got nothing to lose

I am just sucking down these creature comforts
I savor my bad behavior
This self defeat tastes so sweet, comes in all these different flavors
I accept this rejection, please deliver me from perfection
All my dreams were shattered in a mirror of self reflection

I try to think of better days but they're all far away
But I've got no expectation and that might be my saving grace
I lost all that I had but it feels so good to feel so bad
I'm a lonesome man and I ain't got nothing to lose
