lyrics

It's hard luck
I'm starving
And I still can't sleep
Caught up in nostalgia
Grass stained, skinned knees
Can't change but I want to
Cause my hands aren't clean
Caught up in the trauma I can't unsee

Getting caught up in the worst of it
You haven't left much to keep working with
I take my time
Work with these hands of mine
There's too much hurt in this
Who do you think deserves this shit?
I pray from time to time but I think this failure is by design

It's hard luck
I'm starving
And I still can't sleep
Caught up in nostalgia
Grass stained, skinned knees
Can't change but I want to
Cause my hands aren't clean
Caught up in the trauma I can't unsee

Fill a red bottle with pills again
Still feel hollow
Feel the guilt ascend
I can't survive what you have in mind
Said you'd breathe life into me
Buried your knife deep into me instead
I won't make it unless...
You fall down by the wayside and give into progress

It's hard luck
I'm starving
And I still can't sleep
Caught up in nostalgia
Grass stained, skinned knees
Can't change but I want to
Cause my hands aren't clean
Caught up in the trauma I can't unsee
