Day at a Time Lyrics

Listen up but don't you heed my words

You can say that I'm the world's worst best friend

Kick me harder 'cause I want to stay down

The straight and narrow's never been so damn bent

Like a killer just butchering time

My knife slipped, and then I severed my lifeline

I could stop, but I don't wanna go home

I sleep better when I'm coming off a midnight ride

That's when I realized I'm dying a day at a time

That's when I realized I'm dying a day at a time

So whatcha wanna know?

I'm opening up

I gave up everything I love just to make a few bucks

I lived with reason by I never knew why

She locked me up, and I was living on my death bed

Cut me open at the line I crossed

I'm dying to know if it's the last word I said

I chipped away at all the salt and bone

I lived in rubble that was deep enough to dive in

I'm threading needles in a dim red light

Can't find the eye, but then again, at least I'm trying, right?

I got all the back doors mapped out

Someone's gotta check in with the bad girls

Then she said, why don't you stay?

'Cause I don't mind you, and you don't mind me

That's saying a lot 'cause I even hate god

'Cause he's always taking up my time

Would you learn to accept or only regret

All the time you spent with me?

So watcha get high

I don't really mind

I've always had a thing for astronauts
