The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Let's go!
I drink from 9 to 5, to forget my 5 to 9,
I used to see my future now i feel i'm going blind.
My bed doesn't feel the same without you laying next to me,
I smoke until i cough, hoping that i forget to breathe.
Maybe, one day, i'll get set straight.
For now, i can only hope.
Right now the only straight lines that i see are going up my nose.
This is the way i've been so very long,
Can't eat, can't sleep, spend hours by the phone.
"we'll be together forever" ...turns out that i was wrong.
Got nothing left to hold except this bottle and this song.
I smoke my dreams down to the filter just to forget her,
How long until i'm up in flames?
A thousand bottle down, simply to remember,
I've got a time bomb strapped to my brain.
Maybe, one day, i'll get set straight,
For now i can only hope.
Right now the only straight lines that i see are going up my nose.
I turn around you stab me in my back,
I'll trade this headache for a heart attack. [x4]
Every breath that you'll ever breathe,
Every lie that you spoke to me,
Every person that you'll ever meet,
Will see you for what you are.
