Lyrics
Bloodshot Life
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.
He drinks his whiskey and his coffee black,
Days away from a heart attack
He knows
He's not getting younger
Haunted by his dreams off track,
Smoke a cigarette and push 'em back,
He knows...
The day is coming
I see fear in your eyes, your eyes, your eyes
Suffocating, so frustrating,
Every day, the way you live your life
Filling up on empty, scripted lies
I watch you fading, desecrating everything in sight,
The trigger pulls itself without a fight,
When you're living a bloodshot life
He's got a vision of demons' eyes,
Burnin' holes inside his mind
He knows
They're coming for him
Runnin' out of second tries,
Tick tock, the clock is winding down
And he ain't got shit
Cus in the end...there's no time, no time, no time
Suffocating, so frustrating,
Every day, the way you live your life
Filling up on empty, scripted lies
I watch you fading, desecrating everything in sight,
The trigger pulls itself without a fight,
When you're living a bloodshot life
When you're living a bloodshot life...
He drinks his whiskey and his coffee black,
Days away from a heart attack
He knows
He's not getting younger.
