Lyrics

Verse 1

Eyes heavy like a loaded gun

Every breath I take could be my last one

Mothafucka said they got me on the schedule

Death on the calendar circled in red

Lord knows I ain't ready for the bed

Funeral flowers already on my head

They count my minutes like they countin bread

Every hour feels like a year gone by

Tryna smile but I'm chokin on the lie

Pre-Chorus

I see the headlights comin down the road

Prayin it swerves but I already know

Chorus

Shut me down like a city with no power

Borrowed time drippin hour by hour

I'm a tightrope walker with no net below

Mothafucka ain't nowhere to go

I'm a heartbeat chasin its own defeat

Every window's locked and there's no street

Verse 2

Closed my eyes and saw my own grave

Woke up screamin but nothin could save

Every friend I loved is gone to dust

And I still breathe while they turnin rust

Why they bury soldiers while they leave me standin

Every dawn feels like a knife expandin

Don't come near me don't you touch my skin

Got a war inside that I can't win

Clock on the wall is my worst enemy

Torture in the tickin what it does to me

Pre-Chorus

Moonlight fades and then it comes again

Weekends feel like mournin for a friend

Chorus

Shut me down like a city with no power

Borrowed time drippin hour by hour

I'm a tightrope walker with no net below

Mothafucka ain't nowhere to go

I'm a heartbeat chasin its own defeat

Every window's locked and there's no street

Bridge

I hate the dark but I hate the light more

Because mornin means one less day to store

All the words I never got to say

Letters piled up that'll never see the day

Fear is a mothafucka livin in my chest

And I'm tired of bein better than the rest

Just a dog with no collar and no home

Hopin that the road decides to take me home

Chorus

Shut me down like a city with no power

Borrowed time drippin hour by hour

I'm a tightrope walker with no net below

Mothafucka ain't nowhere to go

I'm a heartbeat chasin its own defeat

Every window's locked and there's no street
