usually trespassing - burnin' up

Well I woke up this morning
And I poured myself a drink
You bet I made it stronger than
These shitty things I think
They say whiskey and depression
Yeah they go hand in hand
But they still ask me why I'm drinking
As if they don't understand

The fire flows through my teeth
Hits the back of my throat
All those problems I conceived
Don't matter anymore
The fire understands me, yeah
The fire is a friend
That's why this burning bottle will be here
Until the bitter end
The world don't exist to me
Just what's inside this cup
So much fire in my life
Feels like I'm burning up
I'm burning up

I reached the end of the tunnel
But there was no light to be found
So I lit me up a cigarette
And turned my feet around
Looked so long for that light
That I was back at the start
Then I found fire's just as good
At getting rid of the dark

The fire flows through my teeth
Hits the back of my throat
Wakes me up from my sleep
Brings me out from the cold
The fire understands me, yeah
The fire is a friend
That's why I know it'll be there
Right until the bitter end
The world don't exist to me
Just what's inside this cup
So much fire in my life
Feels like I'm burning up
I'm burning up

Well there might be better remedies
Just not ones that I've found
Gonna have this bottle in my fist
Til they put me in the ground
Sex, drugs, and rock n roll
They never seemed enough
No I'd rather spend my time
Feeling like I'm burning up
I'm burning up

I said the fire flows through my teeth
Hits the back of my throat
Gives me the strength I need
To stare at my own soul
The fire understands me
Down to the core of my bones
As long as I have it
And it has me
I don't walk this road alone
The world don't exist to me
Just what's inside this cup
So much fire in my life
Feels like I'm burning up
I'm burning up
