Some Days, Most Nights

from AS YOU WERE by HOURS

lyrics

We’re punctuating negatives and calling them divides,
To fix the wrongs that we can never right.
While the virtuous are patient,
I’m anxious about time.
I’m anxious about space.

And I’ll chain smoke ‘cos hey…
Why the fuck not?
I’m living in the god damned moment.
And I’ll keep drinking far too much.
‘Cos life’s intoxicating
But I’m just not feeling drunk enough.

My brain feels like it’s bleeding,
My fingers feel the same.
I’ve had a restless night; I’ll probably sleep all fucking day.
Like I don’t have shit to do –
Like essays to complete,
Like people to connect with,
Or parents to please.

And I’ll chain smoke ‘cos hey…
Why the fuck not?
I’m living in the god damned moment.
And I’ll keep drinking far too much.
‘Cos life’s intoxicating
but I’m just not drunk enough – to get the brave…

The trial and error of our ways,
Has got us so caught up in freaking out
And going backwards
To the start - where we were right.

I’m unraveling cables.
I’m putting on new strings.
I’m working on my voice, ‘cos Matt wants me to sing.
And Liv’s taking time off from working on my self-esteem.
She’s got places she needs to be.

And I’ll chain smoke ‘cos hey…
Why the fuck not?
And I’ll keep drinking far too much.
‘Cos life’s intoxicating,
But I’m just not fucking drunk enough.
