Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm always thinking about useless things
I'm always checking out
I'm always mothering myself to bits
I'm always checking out
[Verse 2]
Forget it, nothing I change changes anything
I won't let it, I won't let it ruin my head
[Verse 3]
I only take up a little of the collapsing space
I better cut this off don't wanna fuck it up
I only take up a little of the collapsing space
I better cut this off don't wanna fuck up the place
[Verse 4]
I better walk it back, walk it back
Oh I better walk it back, walk it back, walk it back, walk it back
[Verse 5]
I try to save it for a rainy day
It's raining all the time
Until everything is less insane
I'm mixing beer with wine
[Verse 6]
Forget it, nothing I change changes anything
I won't let it, it won't let it ruin my head
[Verse 7]
I only take up a little of the collapsing space
I better cut this off don't wanna fuck it up
I only take up a little of the collapsing space
I better cut this off don't wanna fuck it up
I only take up a little of the collapsing space
I better cut this off don't wanna fuck up the place
[Verse 8]
I better walk it back, walk it back
Oh I better walk it back, walk it back, walk it back, walk it back
Oh I better walk it back, walk it back, walk it back, walk it back
[Verse 9]
I can't stay here
And I can't come back
I just keep awake
And I won't react
[Verse 10]
I walk through Lawrencetown
Along the tracks
My own body in my arms
But I won't collapse
[Verse 11]
So don't go dark on me
It's all alright
If I'm gonna get back to you someday
I'll need you light
