For Tadjo Im Pathetic by Not Nearly Lyrics
Walking aimlessly with you
You said “don’t forget this feeling”
I'll be out of town for work soon, and you’ll be at home sleeping
Nothing much to dream about, nothing like we imagined
Drove out 20 hours, played a show for 3 kids, made 65 bucks divided by 7
‘Cause I’m pathetic, I’m alright
Yeah I’m a failure, wasting life
What are the odds we make it home alive this time?
(And every time I try to claw my way out, you pull the string around my ankles back down
Treading the water, raining harder now, so stick around, watch me drown)
It’s not a mistake if you make it twice
It's worth the pain if it gets you high
I’m not arrogant, I hate my life
I’m pathetic, you were right
Smoke ‘till there’s no air, drink until I don’t care
Can’t fear the future if I never get there
Pull out my teeth in a fever dream
I sing suicide notes disguised as poetry
Nothing you can do to save me now
I picked the derelict bridge but keep looking down
Because I know I’ll never make it but I'll still be proud
So just stick around, watch me drown
Broken bridge, falling down
Hold your breath, let it out
Heavy rain, harder now
Stick around, watch me drown
Pull the string, drag me down
Broken wrists, reaching out
Surface getting farther now
Stick around, watch me drown
You said “don’t forget this feeling”
I'll be out of town for work soon, and you’ll be at home sleeping
Nothing much to dream about, nothing like we imagined
Drove out 20 hours, played a show for 3 kids, made 65 bucks divided by 7
‘Cause I’m pathetic, I’m alright
Yeah I’m a failure, wasting life
What are the odds we make it home alive this time?
(And every time I try to claw my way out, you pull the string around my ankles back down
Treading the water, raining harder now, so stick around, watch me drown)
It’s not a mistake if you make it twice
It's worth the pain if it gets you high
I’m not arrogant, I hate my life
I’m pathetic, you were right
Smoke ‘till there’s no air, drink until I don’t care
Can’t fear the future if I never get there
Pull out my teeth in a fever dream
I sing suicide notes disguised as poetry
Nothing you can do to save me now
I picked the derelict bridge but keep looking down
Because I know I’ll never make it but I'll still be proud
So just stick around, watch me drown
Broken bridge, falling down
Hold your breath, let it out
Heavy rain, harder now
Stick around, watch me drown
Pull the string, drag me down
Broken wrists, reaching out
Surface getting farther now
Stick around, watch me drown
