lyrics

I don’t wanna get hurt but I’m afraid that I will
I don’t wanna get hurt but I don’t wanna take pills

Got rocks in the tank
Sippin on backwash choking on the blowback
You can try to stop me but I,
I control myself when I’m alone

I wanna let go, I wanna let go

I remember skinny dipping
Actually I’ve never gone
but it’s something that I want to do
Would you do it if I asked you to?

There’s a mist in my mind, fogging up my eyes
But I recall you singing thru the phone

I wanna let go, I don’t want the control

Sometimes when I’m all alone
Or sometimes when I’m not
Darkness tries to wrestle me and take over my thoughts

It takes all I have, it takes all I am
This time I hold it back again

How long can I last, how long can I last

When it’s me against my mind I’ve only got my bones to brace against
The burden of insecurity crumbles beneath the weight of instability

I am a loose cannon when I’m by myself

one two three one two three one two three four
