Lyrics
0:00So I took my medication and I poured my trauma out
0:05On some sad-eyed middle-aged man's overpriced new leather couch
0:11And we argued about Jesus finally found some middle ground
0:16I said I'm cured
0:21And I divvied up my anger into thirty separate parts
0:27Keep the bad **** in my liver and the rest around my heart
0:32I'm still angry at my parents for what their parents did to them
0:38But it's a start
0:42But I ignore things and I move sideways
0:48'Til I forget what I felt in the first place
0:53At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive
1:04'Cause everyone's growing and everyone's healthy
1:09I'm terrified that I might never have met me
1:14Oh if my engine works perfect on empty
1:20I guess I'll drive
1:26I guess I'll drive
1:31So I forgot my medication fell into a manic high
1:37Spent my savings at a Lulu now I'm sufferin' in style
1:42Why is pain so damn impatient
1:45Ain't like it's got a place to be
1:48Keeps rushin' me
1:53But I ignore things and I move sideways
1:58'Til I forget what I felt in the first place
2:03At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive
2:14'Cause everyone's growing and everyone's healthy
2:19I'm terrified that I might never have met me
2:25Oh if my engine works perfect on empty
2:30I guess I'll drive
2:36And if all my life was wasted
2:41I don't mind I'll watch it go
2:47Yeah it's better to die numb than feel it all
2:57Oh if all my time was wasted
3:03I don't mind I'll watch it go
3:08Yeah it's better to die numb than feel it all
3:19But I ignore things and I move sideways
3:24Until I forget what I felt in the first place
3:29At the end of the day Lord knows there are worse ways to stay alive
3:40'Cause everyone's growing and everyone's healthy
3:45I'm terrified that I might never have met me
3:51Oh if my engine works perfect on empty
3:56I guess I'll drive
4:02I guess I'll drive
So I took my medication and I poured my trauma out On some sad-eyed middle-aged man's overpriced new leather couch And we argued about Jesus finally found some middle ground I said I'm cured And I divvied up my anger into thirty separate parts Keep the bad **** in my liver and the rest around my heart I'm still angry at my parents for what their parents did to them But it's a start But I ignore things and I move sideways 'Til I forget what I felt in the first place At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive 'Cause everyone's growing and everyone's healthy I'm terrified that I might never have met me Oh if my engine works perfect on empty I guess I'll drive I guess I'll drive So I forgot my medication fell into a manic high Spent my savings at a Lulu now I'm sufferin' in style Why is pain so damn impatient Ain't like it's got a place to be Keeps rushin' me But I ignore things and I move sideways 'Til I forget what I felt in the first place At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive 'Cause everyone's growing and everyone's healthy I'm terrified that I might never have met me Oh if my engine works perfect on empty I guess I'll drive And if all my life was wasted I don't mind I'll watch it go Yeah it's better to die numb than feel it all Oh if all my time was wasted I don't mind I'll watch it go Yeah it's better to die numb than feel it all But I ignore things and I move sideways Until I forget what I felt in the first place At the end of the day Lord knows there are worse ways to stay alive 'Cause everyone's growing and everyone's healthy I'm terrified that I might never have met me Oh if my engine works perfect on empty I guess I'll drive I guess I'll drive
