lyrics

To amend
a trend that’s embedded
or end up a victim
On track for relapse
still attached to aspects
of trash distraction
We don’t always see logically
toying with poison
My clear skies deprived
until the crime is rectified
In purgatory
searching for
redemption

Rigid and constrained
by reckless days
failing in subtle ways
at first
When left unchecked
getting wrecked
not a shred of self respect
Last minute
bound to turn it round
I’m ticking every box
I know I should
Kick my arse
because I could
Prime times
we’re not a product
of seductive
surroundings
Beware times
we blend right in
Seen I’ve descended again
it’s time to reel it in
You’ve heard it all
looking like a fool
I might act contrite
but you don’t lack hindsight
A few tonight
for old times’ sake
Or scout out a new routine
A clean means to get endorphins
Competing scenes repeating
Just need to abstain
for the first days

Finding the strength to snap out of it
Got a brand new perspective
can’t believe
it has been so easy
But don’t be deceived
in thinking things
are different now

Even just a sip can be the tipping point
Back to where you’ve been
at the beginning
hitting home you
have to start again
Temporary temptation
when frustrated
is a test of will
wait until
you feel the need
recede
to see you can
first hand
Fuck

It will be fine
it’s just a matter
of time to adjust
Changing inside
The weight of mistakes
built up in your mind
Now you know

More likely to fall
with no goals in place
to tenacious patterns
The thought of something
we find exciting
makes struggling
righteous
Give the focus purpose
or stay the same
and maintain
a familiar routine
Nothing to show
no control at all
Grow old never knowing
what struggling can do for you

Fine in a paradigm
of impulsive design
gunna die
Why give a fuck?
Just redline

Do something new
return restarted
Change is cathartic
with no targets festered
stressed getting tested
Finding I declined

Confined to a paradigm
of impulsive design
though malign
could be turned round
in no time
Inclined to excess
so unless
it’s expressed
in a positive context
ya gunna regress
See the curse
as purely misspent potential

Living excessive
is a gift at a risk
When short term saviours
lead to antisocial behaviour
Indulging to maintain
keeping checks
on the brain
Am I slipping?
Knowing just how low you can go
Enthralled to show
more control
It will be fine
it’s just a matter
of time to adjust
Changing inside
the weight of mistakes
built up in your mind
Now you know
