GET TUFF - a piss poor excuse to stay in bed

If it's all gonna burn down
Don't see the point in waiting for it
Just waiting around for it now

Are you waiting around for it now?
Waiting around for it now

I feel it heat up and it brings my spirits down
I get so anxious just
Waiting around for it now
Knowing it won't pass
As the seasons do
This is a new reality
A deadly seed waiting to bloom
So I'll try not to hold my breath

But if I hold it, I can't control it
It's like there's a tie between
My anxiety and my lungs
Oh they're deeply in love
So just punch me in the gut
So I can separate them
Stay awake and conscious enough
To get up off my kitchen floor
Take a deep breath, deep breath and
Drink a glass of water
It gets hotter and I can't ignore
This looming dread
What a piss poor excuse to
Pity myself
Isolate
And ultimately
Stay in bed

Stay in bed
Stay in bed

Stay in bed
Stay in bed

Stay in bed
Stay in bed
Stay in
Bed
Stay in
Stay in
Stay in
Bed

I fear you'll speak up just to tear me down
I get so anxious wondering if I've made a fool of myself
But why would you fake it if you don't want me around?

Such shitty lies we tell ourselves
When we're recovering
From scars
Dead weight on our hearts that make it
Hard to trust and restart
Someone said to me recently
"Love, you don't always have to be on guard"

But if I let down the walls I've built around
There will be nothing to keep you from taking advantage of me
And the stains on my heart and my brain
So just punch me in the face so I can
Snap back to a cooler mood, but stay frustrated
By my utter lack of faith and my
Constant
Blatant
Fear of being replaced by someone who never makes mistakes
I'm stuck in my head
What a piss poor excuse to
Pity myself
Isolate
And ultimately
Stay in
Bed

Stay in bed
Stay in bed
Stay in bed
Stay in
Stay in
Stay in bed
