lyrics

i woke up this morning
and my whole body hurt
start drinking at noon
empty the ashtray as i fill it
i woke up this morning
i slept for two hours
guess i must've slept wrong
why the fuck am i always sleeping wrong

i woke up this morning
with a pain in my head
my friends say i should drink more water
when my head hurts i try to drink more water
i woke up this morning
coughing my goddamn lungs out
take four ibuprofen
and ignore the interactions

i really wanna lie
and make it seem like i'm safe
but honestly my head's fucking cooked
and i'm never really awake
i know you want me to think that you care
and i won't tell you what to do
but i need to tune it all out for awhile
there's nothing else i can do

i woke up this morning
taste of blood in my maw
cracked tooth that i gave myself
and something spilled on the carpet
i woke up this morning
with bloodstains on my sheets
must've been a bad dream
such a bad fuckin' dream

i couldn't do this if i tried
and i wouldn't if i could
you know i wanna put in the effort
but i know you never really would
i don't want your pity
and i don't want your tears
i just wanna find another handle of whiskey
and something to cover my ears
