Carolina Reaper

[Verse 1]

So your coping skills are weak

You can find me six feet deep

In a hole you dug yourself

You said that you didn't need my help

But the blood that stains these hands

They beg to differ

[Verse 2]

I know you hate the taste of copper

But here's a penny for my thoughts

'Cause our wishing well ran dry

And the novelty wore off

Treading the waters of nostalgia

But brought down by rusted anchors

At least I'm consistent (At least I'm consistent)

[Refrain]

I'm stuck in complacency

Can you tell me again, tell me again that this is worth it?

I'm stuck in redundancy

Can you tell me again, tell me again that this is worth it?

[Pre-Chorus]

I can't do this on my own

Can you still hear me?

I can't make it all alone

[Chorus]

I saw my heroes turn to fossils

Like the CDs in my center console

Can you call this progress or is it all just a dream?

As I'm haunted by the "To Be Continued" screen

Is this life for me?

[Verse 3]

You'd rather watch a train wreck

Held with thunderous applause

Than stop to watch the sunset

I can see the writing on the walls

Remembering the dead is easier than keeping them alive

So we'll follow in their footsteps

Instead of swallowing our pride

I hate the taste of copper

But it seems my tongue's been split

Words and actions speaking out of turn

My thoughts are losing grip

I tried my best not to let out the worst in me

Making the best of this mess that you made of things

[Refrain]

I'm stuck in complacency

Can you tell me again, tell me again that this is worth it?

I'm stuck in redundancy

Can you tell me again, tell me again that this is worth it?

[Chorus]

I saw my heroes turn to fossils

Like the CDs in my center console

Can you call this progress or is it all just a dream?

As I'm haunted by the "To Be Continued" screen

I saw my heroes turn to fossils

Like the CDs in my center console

Can you call this progress or is it all just a dream?

As I'm haunted by the "To Be Continued" screen

Is this life for me?
