about

I wrote this track into 2018 for my album "Escape Artist" but because the producer that sent me this beat ended up giving the beat away to someone else, I cannot put it on all streamming platforms. So it is for non-commerical use only. Enjoy the free track!

lyrics

LYRICS:

Yeah

Invectrum

And it goes like this


There's a warmth in my stomach from the first sip of booze, like oooooh
maybe liquor can improve my mood
Cause all I ever wanna do is hit snooze
and try hibernate through my blues
But in the mornin' I'll be lickin my wounds
Hatin' life while I sit in my room
Cause every bottle takes a bit of my youth
and every winter I get stricken by blues

It's dark when I wake up and it's dark after work
and dark around my heart since its charred black and burnt
and..in my opinion, real art captures hurt
Plus every sick joke needs a sarcastic smirk
I missed the bus and then slipped in the slush it left behind
Some people beg for change, I'm beggin' for some extra time
I'm in a rush, but never next in line, I hate the cold
Sometimes you cant control your fate, thats just the way she goes
Half my life is like the hangovers I so despise
The other half is made of ugly grey and frozen skies
Ferocious blizzards got me snowed in like the shining
All work, I only focus on my writing
Antisocial when I'm hide behind a curtain most days
They dont want this circus monkey in their Cirque du Soleil
So I'ma melt my brain away and stare a screen
Until its spring and I can wake up from this terrible dream

There's a warmth in my stomach from the first sip of booze like oooooh
maybe liquor can improve my mood
Cause all I ever wanna do is hit snooze
and try hibernate through my blues
--But in the mornin' I'll be lickin my wounds
Hatin' life while I sit in my room
Cause every bottle takes a bit of my youth
and every winter I get stricken by blues

I haven't left the house for like 3 days and counting
In a bleak state, just frowning for a week straight and pouting
So I sleep late within a dreamscape
I'm shouting please wait
Dont leave me in this deep lake I'm drowning
Other times I'm on a cloud of cotton candy
As I'm driftin in the mountain tops
til I'm hounded by a sound thats like a power saw that panicks me
Alarm screechin loud enough to bounce across a valleys reach
and trigger an avalanche, that traps me in a massive freezer
I can't breathe like I'm packaged in vaccuum sealer
Sanity teaters in the balance with the cabin fever
Practising soliloquies to fill the seats in amphitheatres
Inside my mind where its covered in frost
and my toes are always numb, so Im cuttin em off
I swear to god I wont complain when the summer gets hot
I'll head straight to a lake then run and jump off the dock

There's a warmth in my stomach from the first sip of booze, like oooooh
maybe liquor can improve my mood
Cause all I ever wanna do is hit snooze
and try hibernate through my blues
--But in the mornin' I'll be lickin my wounds
Hatin' life while I sit in my room
Cause every bottle takes a bit of my youth
and every winter I get stricken by blues

Sometimes I stare up at the sullen sky afflicted
and admire how the clouds have always hovered by and drifted
As I tumble in the wind just like a butterfly that's wingless
My struggle is a hymn, I'm singin lullabies for misfits
I remember feelin crushed inside and witnessed
my older brother cry the night our cousin died on Christmas
tears streaming down his cheeks in utter silence,
Sittin' at the dinner table didn't take another bite, its twisted
When your life can take a turn that leaves you speechless and your family
was cohesive till it shattered into pieces like a glass sheet
every shard is like a dagger in your heart
and all the old pictures tend to takes you to the start
God forgive me if the winter ain't my favourite
been a Grinch while getting wasted in a pit of bitter hatred
Its a cold cold world and its never gonna change
so my aim is to mix a bit of pleasure with my pain

There's a warmth in my stomach from the first sip of booze, like oooooh
maybe liquor can improve my mood
Cause all I ever wanna do is hit snooze
and try hibernate through my blues
--But in the mornin' I'll be lickin my wounds
Hatin' life while I sit in my room
Cause every bottle takes a bit of my youth
and every winter I get stricken by blues
