never getting what you want.
you can't emote, you have to taunt.
you'll always work at a restaurant you don't have passion for
sipping your old overholdt knowing it will always be your fault.
it will always be your fault.
there's a brick wall in my room
better listener than you.
what are you blaming now
that you've used up all of everyone around
taking pity by the pound
trouble lying your head down
any time before she calls last round
what are you blaming now?
always looking to place blame
so you can live staying the same
nothing precious to lose.
nothing precious to gain.
there's a brick wall in my room that's a better listener than you.
