Getting Up is Hard; Staying Up is Harder
It's so easy
to go right out
turn my back
walk away
My soul’s been sold
a million times
What's one more
stupid dime?
Walked this way
for so long
One foot out
to trip myself
Eat concrete
Head all hurt
Another drink
Forget about all of you!
I'm the rebel in black and blue!
A rebel who burned his clue!
Stairs with a broken step!
If I don't get up, I'll drink myself to death!
Cat's away
Time to play
**** my friends
Don't need amends
Serve myself
Die alone
in my home
or in the street
I'll get online
show my behind
Wake up hurt
It's all fine
Delete last night
no big deal
I'll forget about how I feel!
I was the rebel in black and blue!
Drunken fighter without a clue!
Waking up to fix this step!
I won't drink myself to death!
