Kevin's on the phone
I heard he called in sick and couldn't wait it out
Well buddy where you goin?
I'm just dropping by to ask you how

You'll be getting on without
All those things we fought about

Heaven is a-burning
All your prayers and nightmares coming true
Collect your final earnings
No one here was lookin out for you

Now they're coming after me
Guess I'm gonna have to leave

I've gotta quit in a minute
Better hit it
Lemme go
Look out I'm burning my bridges
Taking off

Turn your badge in
Couldn't beat em
Giving up a pension and benefits for freedom
Taking off, taking off

Another meeting in boardroom
Heard Michael's coming down from level nine
Wouldn't wanna be in your shoes
We'll be packing boxes, he'll be fine

Sign the papers by the door
We don't work here anymore

Take your supplements and exercise
Have another ibuprofen
And close your eyes
It'll be over soon

Micro-dose of escitalopram
Make the most of every moment
That you can
It'll be over soon

Every day
We're getting closer
To another
One of these
It'll be too hard
To recover

Proton pump inhibiting your pride
Moderated drinking, dressing
On the side
It'll be over soon

A prescription hydrocortisone
Call your mother, check the voicemails
On the phone  
It'll be over soon

I've been maintaining every minute of my life
And I'm so tired of being good
So concerned with keeping everything in line
That I'm gonna have a heart attack
Gonna lay down and die

I don't wanna waste
Your precious time
We've all got somewhere to be
And I'm not gonna make
No pickup lines
I'm not that interesting

I make my bed
Every morning, every night
just to get in it, just to get in it
I keep my curtains drawn,
I been hiding from the light
Just to stay with it, Just to stay with it

I've got not advice
For living large
I've never really gone
And it may look like I'm in charge
But I'm barely hanging on

I make my bed
Every morning and every night
Just to get in it, just to get in it
I take my medicine
Got the dosages just right
Just to stay with it, just to stay with it

I been dreading the end since morning
And I been treading lightly
Fretting this friendly courting might be recurring nightly

You've been eyeing me up, all over
I know you're looking for it
My anxiety's up I'm sober
And I just can't ignore it

It's been eating at me all evening
Like a dog with bone
Just as you start to lean in
I'd rather be alone

I'd invite you to come inside
But I don't think it gets much better than this
Maybe we could talk on the phone

Stop! Heel, get down
I'm not feeling up
Can we put it off? I can't get it up

Don't feel let down
I'm not good enough
Can we put it off?
I can't get it up

We been at this for quite some time
Not sure if I could do much better than that
But girl, you gotta know that I tried

And I don't know what you had in mind
But I'm thinking I had better just call you a cab
Put you in an Uber and hide

Another appointment
A pain in my ass
Always something gonna ruin my night
Fly in the ointment or a smudge on the glass
Ten thousand paper cuts will be the way that I die

And it's a slow bleeding
You're the one I wanna bleed with
It's a sentimental feeling I have
You're the one who gives it meaning

I have been looking for a reason
To stick around
And baby
You are all I need
Come on and bleed with me

Oh when there's nothing to believe in
I need a little company
For this misery
Bleed with me

A busy agenda
A party past midnight
I couldn't sleep again for the thirtieth time
Got a presentation in the morning on business
Ten thousand paper cuts, not a bandage in sight

I been trying to get better
I been trying to stay good
But when I get into the bottle
My motives are misunderstood

I can't remember the last time I felt right
Been hiding inside, I been locked up alone
You'd send me away if the cards had been dealt right
But I'd never forgive you for leaving all on my own

I can't stand to be with myself
Can't stand to be with myself
I Can't stand to be with myself
Can't stand to be with myself

Well I tried self improvement
I been going to the gym
But there's been so little movement
I think I'll never look like them

I can't remember the last time I saw her
It's been a while since I looked in the mirror
Call me an taxi or call me a lawyer
But there no way in hell that you're planning on leaving me here

Sunday slumming
Been looking for a reason
No payday coming
No money to speak of

Daddy's on holiday
Kicked outta the house and
I'm indebted to Sallie Mae
For a hundred thousand

Now then
I'm in deep with the man
I got a pocket full of plastic and
No way to spend it
Gonna need another lender to
Give me a hand unless
I'm headed for a bender
One-arm bandit better save me tonight

Monday morning
Ain't no time to be playing
I been calling the foreman
And nobody's paying

Pick my chin up
And head to the tables
I could be a winner
I'm willing and able

I'm in deep with the man
I got a pocket full of plastic and
No way to spend it
I'll never do it again

Caught in the grip of retail
Who knew I needed so much?
I've been hanging on every detail
This leather, soft to the touch!

I'm gonna spend my way
Through another day
But you know they say
Money can't buy love

I've got another subscription
Just leave the package at the door
Call it a savings addiction
It's the deals I'm living for

I gotta fill this void
Gonna fill it with a cardboard opioid
The only thing that I could never enjoy
Money can't buy love

Diamonds and pearls
Never again in this world
Will I work for a day
Yes I have what I need
Forever

Tight buckled,
White knuckling through another day
In paradise
I pay to survive
I am on a roll

What luck!
(They forget it)
I don't need another reminder
I'm a get down guy
I toe the line
I maintain control

Day's been turning around but then it starts
Nipping at the edges of my consciousness and in my heart
Preys in every town, it's never far
Keeping vigil over my preoccupations like a bodyguard

Poor cuckold,
Still suckling on the bosom of
My LA life
I'm staying alive
But it's getting old

I'm stuck!
(Don't forget it)
Takes a little time to remember
I'm a paradigm
I stay inside
And I horde my gold

I'll dig myself another bunker baby
You'll never take me for a ride
Hidden in an ivory tower
Cowering at the shadows in my mind
