lyrics

Don't look back on times when things were simpler, 'cause hindsight is a liar, and times are as hard as they ever were. Those problems were insurmountable ever though they're far away. But I have a habit of denying myself that I overcame.

A lot of my friends have drifted away and I just let them. And who's to say that they're not happier that way. Most of my friends are like "doubleswhiskeycokenoice" so I'll just drink until I forget them, 'cause maybe I never deserved their kindness and maybe they never felt like they belongs. They call me on the phone and say "I miss how things used to be" and I say "You're wrong!"

But we will overcome. We will overcome. We will overcome and feel like shit in the morning.

Once in a while I catch myself falling in love, but not often. And when that happens, oh god, I get so afraid. I'm amazing at denying the affection of strangers and I'm better when it's people I know. It's so much easier and safer being alone.

So I solemnly swear on the three things I care about: alcohol, cigarettes, and attention. That I'm trying, trying, trying to get better; I'm trying to understand. So scream it out loud, admit the worst parts of yourself, hold them close to your heart and then strangle them to death. We're only getting better if we kill ourselves a little each day.

But we will overcome. We will overcome. We will overcome and feel like shit in the morning.
