Lyrics: Lawrence Arms. Buttsweat And Tears - EP. Spit Shining Shit.

I was awake, dreaming about sleeping
And my mistakes, and how I keep ?em
So close to me, so that I?ll never forget,
I can?t get anywhere

Shedding tears over these bottles
Celebrating life at the bottom
Of the barrel of a barrel so rotten
And I?ve forgotten
What this was like before I started stopping

Fuck this, I?m out of bullshit to cry about.
Pass these ?fuck you?s around.
I?ll be dead and gone when this shit hits the crowd

Tell me why I even tried tonight
I should just let it die.
And I?m tired of waiting for this shit to shine.

I was asleep dreaming about palm trees
And I woke up to dirty city streets
I heard the voices echoed in the back room
And I had to walk around the corner to the barstools
Where I was
Shedding tears over these bottles
Celebrating life at the bottom
Of the barrel of a barrel so rotten
And I?ve forgotten
How to light this fire
I?ve forgotten
How to toe this wire
I?ve forgotten
What shit was like before I started stopping

Tell me why I even tried tonight
I should just let it die.
And I?m tired of waiting for this shit to shine.

I am tired of waiting
I am tired of waiting
This is my life this is my time
It?s time to take it
Don?t let it die.
