lyrics

I awake slamming foot to brake; same damn nightmare, same damn mistakes
If the stress doesn't take me it will certainly break me as I stare at the screen and inspiration forsakes me
Wishing it could burn out my eyes like the sun so I could put down this book and at last be done
But I'd probably just buy a fancy new pair and throw myself back into this pointless despair

I've turned to see myself but I don't see my self
I've improved myself but haven't improved my self
I'm exhausted myself and I've exhausted my self
I'm lost myself and I've lost my self

And here's my reward for a lifetime of study; a plate full of misery served with a side of humility
It would taste just fine if I could take it to-go because meals only make sense when enjoyed alone
I hate this office almost blindly at night as sleep and fatigue literally cloud my sight
But at least I know just what I want, this is exactly what I want

I've turned to see myself but I don't see my self
I've improved myself but haven't improved my self
I'm exhausted myself and I've exhausted my self
I'm lost myself and I've lost my self
