Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Half a year and here you are again
I'd go out in public if nobody ever asked
I sit home and drink alone and hope that bottle speaks
Like you, like us, like me
[Verse 2]
Half a year again, now it's a whole
February stationary from you on the wall
And I sit home and plead the throne to speak, to speak to me, to me
To me, hasn't said a single thing
[Verse 3]
You're probably too busy with your work
Or am I just excusing you for leaving me alone?
There's nothing in these wooden drawers to bring you back, to keep me bored
I don't know what to do with me no more
[Verse 4]
Dear everyone I ever really knew
I acted like an asshole so I could keep my edge on you
Ended up abusing even those I thought immune
I killed the kingdom with one move and now it's time to move
[Verse 5]
Dear everybody that is paid to see my band
Still confusing, we'll never understand
I acted like an asshole so my albums would never burn
But I'm hungry now and the scraps are dirty dirt
I'm hungry now in the scraps of dirty dirt
