So build your castle to watch it fall
She laughs cause she saw it all
Heaven might be an after thought
I mean we're only human after all
And I ain't trying to talk like I'm in the spotlight
But if its alright raise your glass to the ones that fought like they lost the most
That's because it cost life
What's your life like?
Live it up like you only get one life time
Watch the skyline forget the white lie Tonight might be the last night your light shines
All on your instincts fuck what your friends think
Write it all down like you're running out of pen ink
Hit that play it like a six string.
Step by step and day by day someday I'm gonna break away but not today
Revolution won't be til tomorrow
I'm a little unstable when I don't write songs
The panic attacks turn me to Charles Bronson
On my roof in a lawn chair drinking like proof that there's something going on here
Fall down wake up pass out bruises
Booze says it lives where the juice is
Whole lotta loose ends scribbled on napkins
Whiskey shots then this happened
I wrote these songs at a bar
Played them at home cause I couldn't get far
Got a mind of my own and I'm driving my car as far as it goes then I'm willing to walk
And I'd be willing to talk if you're talking progress
Anything else is nonsense
Creative process
Builds and losses
Fill the gaps til they fill your pockets
Good god they broke my drive
Opened fire and I close my eyes
Rest a while I'ma be just fine
It's only real inside my mind.
They only said it could grow if you were ready to go
It's always better when you're living like you're already home
