Hospital Bed

I won’t make this complicated

I won’t pretend that I am such a poet

The words and the sounds out of my lungs

Are the only things that keep me alive

But the weight on my shoulders

Too much to carry with me

It’s outweighing my life

Now it has gotten worse ‘cause I am still here singing for you

You took the words out of my mouth

Yeah I know I’m on my way to a hospital bed

I’m fighting against my flaws

But it’s inevitable

So I will turn around

And make sure that this situation is making sense

So I got a clock on my wall that runs counter-clockwise but it just kills me

Whiskey hits my empty stomach

And it’s enough to make me ambitious again

But it’s all gone when I wake up

After all these cluttered dreams

Am I dreaming or am I sleeping?

The american dream’s just a thing of the past

Now it has gotten worse ‘cause I am still here singing for you

I could’ve called out, could’ve called out your name from a distance

But I couldn’t cut out, couldn’t cut out all the things that hold me down

You took the words out of my mouth

Yeah I know I’m on my way to a hospital bed

I’m fighting against my flaws

But it’s inevitable

So I will turn around

And make sure that this situation is making sense

So I got a clock on my wall that runs counter-clockwise but it just kills me

Now it just kills me

This is what I get for dreaming away for too long

This is what I get for drinking away the days

This is what I get for dreaming away for too long

I’m so careless but anxious to leave it all behind and burn the bridges down

You took the words out of my mouth

Yeah I know I’m on my way to a hospital bed

I’m fighting against my flaws

But it’s inevitable

So I will turn around

And make sure that this situation is making sense

So I got a clock on my wall that runs counter-clockwise but it just kills me

Now it just kills me

I’m on my way to a hospital bed
