Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm thinking maybe I should thank you
Oh baby, I should buy you another round
'Cause you care and I swear that I'm here
But I'm there, it's getting harder to hold me down
Get away to a place with a lake, such a great view
Leave the bank, couple hundred thou'
I made it but I hate once I build it I break it
That might just break me down
[Verse 2]
And all l ever needed was somebody
With some reason who can keep me sane
Ever since I can remember
I been keeping it together but I'm feeling strange
[Verse 3]
Get away when it ain't really safe and it don't seem right
But what's new? You get used to the bullshit
And screws, they go missin'
It's likely they might be, but
[Verse 4]
You remind me
Shit, I need to stay in line
You damn-well are a great design
That you, despite being an only child
Say you need more of a family 'round
Let's turn these genes into hand me downs
Down, down
Down, down, down
And down, down
Down, down, down
[Verse 5]
Yeah, well I'm just being honest my conscience ain't doin' bad
Because I try to minus the problems that I attract
And half the time the wheels that's in the back of my mind
Just keep on turning till the tires flat and burn until the fire crack
I do not lie, though facts may seem a little far-fetched
That's only 'cause I maybe make believe and full darkness
When I'm stuck between a rock and hard place
Walkin', droppin' change inside your empty guitar case, that's charity, um
I move carelessly, that's why I'm always tripping
I guess it's like electrolytes, you help me go the distance
Not too efficient but the way it's always been
Until the day we have to meet again
[Verse 6]
Get away when it ain't really safe and it don't seem right
But what's new? You get used to the bullshit
And screws, they go missing
It's likely they might be, but
[Verse 7]
You remind me
Shit, I need to stay in line
You damn-well are a great design
That you, despite being an only child
Say you need more of a family 'round
Let's turn these genes into hand me downs
Down, down
Down, down, down
And down, down
Down, down, down
