I wake up on the same goddamn couch
To the smell of stale beer
and the taste of ash in my mouth
All this place has ever given me was doubt
Full of people and opinions
I’d be better off without
Why the hell am I still here
To never get out would be my biggest fear
And if I die here then surely I’ll have fucked up
‘Cause we are sharks and this is a fucking bathtub
Got a constant sinking feeling
It’ll be the same until we die
We turn too familiar substances
Every weekend of our lives
Know that it’s a problem
The only solution we can find
We make friends with habit
and enemies of time
Why the hell am I still here
To never get out would be my biggest fear
And if I die here then surely I’ll have fucked up
‘Cause we are sharks and this is a fucking bathtub
Where nothing changes
It’ll only age us
Where we won’t grow
We’ll just grow old
Told myself a hundred times I need to turn my shit around
Pull myself together
Get the fuck out of this town
‘Cause everyone wants out
but no-one seems to leave
And I sure as hell won't
Why the hell am I still here
To never get out would be my biggest fear
And if I die here then surely I’ll have fucked up
‘Cause we are sharks and this is a fucking bathtub
