there's a factory running in my apartment bed
with all my supposed lovers i wish i'd never met
they say my life's a stage but this is so well-arranged
oh who can see what's only make believe?
and i spend my time trying to make them popular
in hopes that they turn out to be like her
and now my soul is my own hell
my mind's the bottom of a well in which i sink
abandoned the machine
and focus on how
you used to sleep
i watched you stand there
you used to rest
i spent the night there
now everyday
you pray for dreaming of me
you always thought of me
and i sit still while tides blow over
the coldest shoulder
my morning sickness repeats
buried in my sheets
till i'm gone
fine you win this
i can't help this
this is sadness satisfaction
now you're wasted
with your selfishness
you try to help me
cause i'm not healthy
and i hate myself again
heard fucking up is the latest trend
policy of whiskey is i'm always drawn
make me a deal you'll never promise
don't be so real, don't be so honest
i always knew the perfect girl for me
didn't care to see she was meant for
for being young but always mutable
so she's been done with being beautiful
now broken glass tramples under her feet
she walks with disbelief
and in my dreams im getting older
the light moves closer
its quite the pleasure to be in my own privacy
but im wrong
in time i'll find a friend to forget what i had back then
this won't last forever, no i won't be here for long
and you speak so damn offhand
too violent to understand
baby i'm not crazy it's just these drugs i'm on
