Blind Eyed

This lighter don't work, no

No flame to spark my goal

My Nike's laced in dirt, oh

I've ended up treading on my own soul (oh)

My headphone's only working on the left side

But I try, to live the right life

My eyes wide, and I strive

To stop my demons gripping, ripping from the inside

This road is dark, and I can't find the batteries for my flashlight

I'm blind eyed and I'm tired

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

These drugs don't work (da, da, da, da)

The pain it takes control (da, ba, di, da, da, da, di, da, da, da, di)

A blood-stained shirt (da, da, di, di, da da, di, di)

I feel like I'm always being chased by the devil (ooh)

I tried to talk, but I can't seem to get my spoken words right

And I t-t-t-t-t-t-try to keep my stutter light

And this life it can be ish right, cut you like a flick knife

Twist and make you sick right

And I think (maybe I'll be better off alone)

So I redirect the calls from my phone

I learnt so many lessons from depression

But in essence, I'm just wishing that these bad thoughts were gone

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

I'm blind eyed

I'm blind eyed

Blind eyed (oh)

Sometimes I bleed, sometimes I crawl, sometimes I slip, sometimes I fall

Sometimes my back is up against the wall so hard that whole building could fall

Sometimes I bruise, sometimes I break, sometimes I'm true, sometimes I'm fake

Sometimes I'm hoping for a moment when the floor would just start opening and swallow me, for goodness' sake

And I think I'm gonna break 'cause I ache, and it's bait, I'm awake in a world full of pain, Superman, no cape

And I'm pressing the breaks, but the breaks, they break, and I'm driving my universe into a lake

And the weight, the weight of the world, don't wait

We make mistakes when it's all at stake

We cook our cake, we eat our cake, sometimes no time for double takes but

That's just the way life goes sometimes

But I don't want to end up in the gutter being battered by my troubles
