self-medicate on a weekday. just trying not to suffocate--just trying to feel alright. i'm a mess today, i'm in my own way, at least that's what the cards did say... and i'm thinking that they're right-- 'cause we all have to learn to lose sometimes i think i'm losing it...or am i selfish? just trying to see the point of it; just trying to survive. sometimes it's hard to want to be alive why did you run?? we could be having fun still. i'm not ok i'm not ok i'm not ok i'm not OK. so, i'll just self-medicate

you make me feel so bad-- why do i let you do that? now i'm crying in the middle of the aisle in the Kroger on 21st and Blair. something has got to give; i think i'm searching for something that doesn't exist; and it's painful to admit things just aren't getting any better, the harder that i try i've got so much to give, but i'm tired i've got so much to give; i've got so much to give. i've got so much to give, but i'm tired

o.h.e. 03:45
do you still recall that time we drove to get away? back to our old mountain town to feel the warm embrace / i still remember sitting in the passenger seat, touching your shoulder and the way you looked at me i can't stop thinking of you; it's been quite a long year or two / what do you suppose i do to get over you? i know you don't want me back; tragic, but it don't change the fact guess i'll have to live with that, but i'll be blue looking on the bright side, now i know just what they mean when they talk about it, all those people on the screen / you give me this feeling; i'm searching for meaning, but you'd rather be leaving, so i'll grieve the past we both knew i can't stop thinking of you; it's been quite a long year or two / what do you suppose i do to get over you? i know you don't want me back; tragic, but it don't change the fact guess i'll have to live with that, but i'll be blue oooooooo

trying to make sense of all of this trying to believe that good exists / things are looking pretty grim all of this and without him-- i cannot believe what is happening brace yourself for what will happen next find some higher ground and take a breath / i know you've had all you can take, it's written all across your face i'm sorry love, there's not much more to say but please keep holding on anyway take some time and walk right next to me we'll talk about the way it used to be / i'm sad to say, the past is gone we're gonna have to move along, but we don't have to do it all alone please...keep trying to find the light and i know that it don't seem right, but we'll be just fine
