Chamberlain

The bulkhead door to the basement's still broken

And I know that some day, one of us is gonna fall through it

Why don't we fix these problems in our lives

While we have the chance?

Cuz I know it as well as you do

That you know what will undo you

Be it alcohol or some other fault we

Deal with it the same way:

We ignore our demons

Push them to the back of our heads

Like a bullet to your temple

Because healing

Is harder than

Appeasing them

And hoping that they'll go away

Honesty is a one way street

And honestly, I don't see this working

But life bleeds sweet

Just not for me

Through the bitterness of time

I succumb to apathy

Falling asleep comes as easy to me as

Gravity takes a stone from my hand

But waking up is a fate

Worse than death

And it's hard to find motivation

When you're dealing with indignation;

Self-inflicted, inebriated

Points of view

That I need to try to find

A reason to see in a different light;

Red and blinding foresight

And I think I'll be fine

I just need time to try to

Find a way to cross this

One-way street

Temporary

Self-defeating monotony

But I believe

We can break free

It's just for now we're

Stuck in between
