Mike Nolan's Long Weekend

[Verse 1: Cory Castro]

I wish I had the words to say, but when I do, I second guess it

The pressure causes stress, it makes my head spin

I feel like I'm expected to have an honest answer

For every single question I'm presented with

[Verse 2: Cory Castro]

It's a hard thing to cope with

Lack of perception when it comes to basic human inner

Flames that I'm stoked with

Can we derive from the mistakes that almost every person's made?

[Pre-Chorus: Cory Castro]

The anxiety has me hiding in a cave

[Chorus: Cory Castro & Jake Hughes]

It's hard to show my face when I am

Judged on every step I take

The weight that's thrown onto my shoulders

Makes me want to hide away

I'm failing another attempt to call for help

Though I never did it

I bet they take it in a different way

You don't have to live it

A bottled message but without an ounce of context

A lack of presence in the life that I live

[Verse 3: Cory Castro]

Every single day

Guess it's the price I pay

When I'm put on display

There's no escape

[Pre-Chorus: Cory Castro]

Notoriety

It makes me feel insane

The anxiety

Has me hiding in a cave

[Chorus: Cory Castro & Jake Hughes]

It's hard to show my face when I am

Judged on every step I take

The weight that's thrown onto my shoulders

Makes me want to hide away

I'm failing another attempt to call for help

Though I never did it

I bet they take it in a different way

You don't have to live it

A bottled message but without an ounce of context

A lack of presence in the life that I live

[Bridge: Cory Castro & Dom Fox]

To understand my pain

Come to your own conclusion after a single glance

Decide my whole persona without a single chance

The underlying message fumbled in the hands

Of people unwilling to fucking further understand

[Chorus: Cory Castro & Jake Hughes]

It's hard to show my face when I am

Judged on every step I take

The weight that's thrown onto my shoulders

Makes me want to hide away

I'm failing another attempt to call for help

Though I never did it

I bet they take it in a different way

You don't have to live it

A bottled message but without an ounce of context

A lack of presence in the life that I live every fucking day
