I lost all my thoughts of angels in an aspirin billboard

Walking down 16th street

Hit the cross street: Catatonia

I wish I had the strength to do your drugs

It must take strength

This life inside is hard to bring outside

Now you turn and cross the corner

Cold sweat, think of what's for dinner

Think I should be thinking deeper

This is your excuse to go outside

I'm sick, not hungry

Sick of people starved for love

I keep creating errands to talk to people, to talk to me

But still, nothing human

Money changes hands is all

This world's a broken record

Skipping on a call with no response

This is what you've been working towards

This punishment is your reward

After all this time, you think you'd learn

When you got your wish, bridges were burned

What are you taking so hard and why?

And are you giving anything back?

Misgiving isn't just another form of giving, is it?

You made your life, now live in it

Learning how to live without her

The one who gave you thirty chances

All of which you promptly blew

If up to you, you'd die to not offend

To not offend
