Surer/Steady

Drunk off my ass I’m in the bathroom sobbing again With bloodshot eyes Hours have passed The party’s long been over now It’s half past five and it’s bright outside It isn’t cool You’re in your twenties salting your wounds Out in plain view You play the fool A role you’ve held since middle school Except now you drink And it’s all you do, you try to say I’m surer now, I’m surer now I’m surer now, I’m steady now I’m steady now, I’m steady now I’m steady now, I’m surer You pen your lines about Chicago day-to-day You run your mouth without having a thing to say Romanticize prestigious universities But you hold yourself as a hostage Out of harm’s way You’re in the corner taking it in He’s got his mouth on again Outrageous claims He’s speaking for you, acts like he knows you Use you as data Are you gonna fight him tonight I’m surer now, I’m surer now I’m surer now, I’m steady now I’m steady now, I’m steady now I’m steady now, I’m surer You pen your lines about Chicago day-to-day You run your mouth without having a thing to say Romanticize prestigious universities But you hold yourself as a hostage You never sleep, your bed’s in total disarray You’re up late for anything to celebrate You get by, you get by but you can’t stop Holding yourself as a hostage Drunk off your ass You’re in the front yard screaming again At this stranger’s house in this college town When you look like you’re eighteen but You’re way too old to be here, yeah you Act like you’re eighteen and There’s not much hope for next year, no no Yeah you look like you’re eighteen And you talk like you're eighteen Yeah you act like you're eighteen But you’re way too old to be here I’m surer now, I’m surer now I’m surer now, I’m steady now I’m steady now, I’m steady now I’m stable now
