Wishbone
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.
My life is a broken mirror
Forever picking up the pieces
My will is broken
I'd give anything to defeat this
A pill to make me smile
A pill to help sleep
A drink to calm the nerves
That keep me feeling weak
I'm meant to be a man
But I can't carry everything...
On my own
Counting on a wishbone
Oh I sink so low
Tell me, will I ever make it out of here?
On my own
Counting on a wishbone
Where did I go wrong
And tell me, will I ever make it out of here
On my own?
On my own, counting on a wishbone
My life is a broken record
Failure on repeat
My mind is a crippled horse
Running circles around me
My self worth has faded
And I have become jaded
I look at the world with tired eyes
Filled with hatred
A pill to make me smile
A pill to help sleep
A drink to calm the nerves
That keep me feeling weak
I'm meant to be a man
But I can't carry everything...
On my own
Counting on a wishbone
Oh I sink so low
Tell me, will I ever make it out of here?
On my own
Counting on a wishbone
Where did I go wrong?
And tell me, will I ever make it out of here
On my own?
Should I just set myself on fire?
Burn?
I won't make it out alive
The world keeps on turning
My mind keeps on burning
Burn
I won't make it out alive
I'm meant to be a man
But I can't carry everything...
On my own
Counting on a wishbone
Oh I sink so low
Tell me, will I ever make it out of here?
On my own
Counting on a wishbone
Where did I go wrong
And tell me, will I ever make it out of here?
