Oh, Hooray - something about closure

Well this one might not have a happy endin'
You're lookin' for receipts on the carpet scramblin'
Bags under your eyes
And it's 3 a.m you keep wakin' up
And swearing that its just a nightmare you're having
But when your eyes open you don't remember them
But your hands are fisted up and white
So tape up your knuckles and glue up the blisters
The dry wall, the spackle to keep out the color
Your suit still fits pretty good
But there's nothin' you'd wear it for
So, hey man I know you're not one for complaining
It's mental health bullshit
How did it happen, but you keep breakin' down
And your hearts in your neck and you don't know what you'll do
But if they play "Baltimore" on the juke
We know you'll cry
Get me my rain coat
Get me a steamboat, I
Wanna get downpoured
I wanna swim or fight to float, yeah
Get me my struggle
I'm tired of plain clothes and ties
Get me my tooth and my nail
I'll dig them into the ground
Well this one might end up a little disheartenin'
It's somethin' bout' closure, something' bout' fallin'
But really what's the plot? we're gonna be in love til' we're not
And we'll find a new person to leach off and strangle
And meet her for coffee, mean well and love her
And till until she's gone
And our throats on the floor and we don't know what we'll do
Pray they don't play "landslide" on the juke
Because I'll cry
Get me my rain coat
Adrianne's steamboat, I
Wanna get downpoured
I wanna swim or fight to float, yeah
Tell me i'm haunted, man
Tattooed in the eyelids, yeah
Get me my tooth and my nail
I'll dig them into the ground
Tell me it's over
And ya' wanna feel better
And tell me the midwest is just a place I'll go to die
I know what you mean man, I
Know what you mean man, I
I know what you mean man
And I hope that you are right
