The Excess

[00:10.47] Drained of all the excess
[00:12.55] Start slipping through a crack
[00:15.80] Showing up to work late
[00:17.74] Slippin' out to take one back
[00:20.24] You get blind and happy and a little banged up
[00:23.36] Falling down in the alleyway
[00:25.79] Pockets picked out clean
[00:27.39] I couldn't thank them for not waking me
[00:31.50] Never mind, never mind, I don't mind
[00:36.39] Told myself, no friends, no allies
[00:43.96] You either do
[00:45.55] Or you don't
[00:48.79] Me, I can't do anything
[00:50.79] Without doing everything else first
[00:53.33] You get tired of lying about the little mistakes
[00:56.40] Forego all the pageantry
[00:59.16] No one's ever handed you a script
[01:02.29] Now they judge your delivery
[01:04.58] Never mind, never mind
[01:09.89] This way seems further than the rest
[01:13.64] The ground is so far from forgiving
[01:16.70] That shortcut was short of living
[01:19.61] I hear what you say, how back in the day
[01:23.79] I know you got torn apart
[01:27.31] Picking up the pieces is too hard
[01:31.01]
[01:40.02] And I hate feeling like you wish
[01:44.70] That you could wake up somewhere else
[01:47.03] If you could just get some sleep
[01:49.65] Grind out some forgotten dream
[01:52.20] Scratch through one more day
[01:55.12] Meantime, we're just dulling down our senses
[01:58.52] Just sharpening our teeth
[02:00.95] This way seems further than the rest
[02:04.82] The ground is so far from forgiving
[02:07.77] That shortcut was short of living
[02:10.80] I hear what you say, how back in the day
[02:14.70] I know you got torn apart
[02:18.26] Picking up the pieces is too hard
[02:22.43]
[02:41.68] This way seems further than the rest
[02:45.79] The ground is so far from forgiving
[02:48.66] That shortcut was short of living
[02:51.54] I hear what you say, I know back in the day
[02:55.84] How you got torn apart
[02:59.04] Picking up the pieces is too hard
[03:03.54]
