ThatKidCry - Surfer Jack

Breathe in... this isn't steady enough
I'm like 5 drinks away from what I wanna become
Jack has always been there, but he kinda burns on the lungs
It's a love/hate relationship anybody could want
Yo, you can't erase me... the way I'm lovin' you lately
My head is drivin' me crazy and takin' me to a place we
Can run... what's up? I'm feelin' kinda fucked
I wanted to drop a line for somethin' you could pick up
Isn't this so us? Babe, it's just so you
I kinda picked up a buzz, the bumblebee of the brews
In ya clutch? that's debatable... Mama? She didn't raise a fool
I thought I could forget, but the liquor company made a tool
I PRAY to lose... my ego's gettin' too big
I been rappin' at the bars when I should be rappin' for kids
Back against the dirt, and I'm lookin' out for a wish
Cheers to a shooting star and now I'm drinkin' again

I've got this empty bottle
I traded pain for booze
I hate the way I want you
But you do not have a clue
We drift out on this ocean
I never felt so blue
It's time we sail away now
Jack, it looks like me and you

Surfs up! My tongue been ridin' the waves
Gaspin' in the air, put the bottle to my face
Chug it like it's detergent 'cause it's washin' out my brain
My mind is barely there, like there's something I gotta say
But we're way too far from the shore
There ain't a thing I can say anymore
Floatin' in the whiskey water, drownin' on the floor
As the pirates set sail and they're gainin' on me more
Fightin' my own war... followin' my compass
Lookin' at this map and it's startin' to turn my stomach
What am I becomin', my vision's already blurring
The alcohol's just perspective at the point of no returning
My throat was already burnin', these symptoms won't turn me off
My memory is learning from things that are better lost
Even better than water... Yeah, everything but the cost
But here I am all alone with an empty glass full of rocks

I got this empty bottle
I traded pain for booze
I hate the way I want you
But you do not have a clue
We drift out on this ocean
I never felt so blue
It's time we sail away now
Jack, it looks like me and you

I got one round left, puttin' it to the test
It's everything that I am, an empty bottle and stress
Puttin' down my glass, now I'm pickin' up my regrets
Now, I know it's only the ocean... but I wander to the west
I'm barely holdin' my head... a regular night out
I'm jealous of all the boats, yo, I really need a lighthouse
Put up the blinds now... I need the right sound
I'm only paying attention whenever I have a wipeout
Hi, My name is Aaron... and I'm addicted to writing
I just need a little help because everything has collided
It's like a hundred emotions inside me continue fighting
They wanna be at the top, but really? They're nothing like me
I never been suicidal... but I'm so sick of trying
Yo, I don't wanna be heartless, or ever think that I might sink
Feels like the right thing... I wanna fly free
So I dive inside the blue, all consuming like a fine drink

I got this empty bottle
I traded pain for booze
I hate the way I want you
But you do not have a clue
We drift out on this ocean
I never felt so blue
It's time we sail away now
Jack, it looks like me and you
