Riot Before I Am Wrong
My guitar is falling apart
And my voice hurts more with every word
Please get me some water
'Cause I'm thirsty
And I can't seem to quench
This longing deep inside of me
That now seems so stupid
What am I doing?
Why am I pressing down these strings?
Will someone please show me the door back to reality?
'Cause I am so lost
I am so delusional
I keep insisting that the ocean really needs some more water
But I am wrong
I am wrong
I am walking in another man's footsteps
I'm a mirror
I'm not original
A reflection at best
There is nothing in my past to ease my doubt
And if history is like these chords
Then It's repeating itself now
I should give up
I should learn to face the truth
That I've wasted all my time and my money and all my youth
I am foolish
I feign self confidence
I keep writing all these words down
Thinking someone might listen
But I am wrong
I am wrong
Sit me at the corner of the bar
And I'll forget words and disgrace my guitar
With your backs all to the sound as you drink round after round
We'll stare off into the smoke and for a moment believe
We're better than we are.
