lyrics

and the trees claw at the house like they're pulling it apart
and i'm staring at my hands again
and i got some pills from somewhere
trying to make it through the summer
this place ought be condemned

i woke up early
took a fistful of advil missed my train
clocked in on time
forced my eyes to focus
forced my spine to straighten
limped home in the dark
raised a glass to my prime

someone come and scrape me off the floor
i don't think this is enough anymore

and the trees claw at the house like they're pulling it apart
and i'm staring at my hands again
and i got some pills from somewhere
trying to make it through the summer
this place ought be condemned
this place ought be condemned

i sleep through earthquakes
lie awake in the night with the screams
i can't get warm
don't ask me for nothin
don't look in my direction
close the door to the cold
turn my back to the storm

someone come and scrape me off the floor
i don't think this is enough anymore

and the trees claw at the house like they're pulling it apart
and i'm staring at my hands again
and i got some pills from somewhere
trying to make it through the summer
this place ought be condemned
this place ought be condemned

everybody wants their personal curse
all things considered i've been worse
everybody gets their personal curse
all things considered i've been worse

i don't want trouble
head hidden skin peeling eyes wide open
caught in the surge
leave me where you find me
leave me where you find me
i will bite the preacher's hand
and i will slither out of church

someone come and scrape me off the floor
i don't think this is enough anymore

and the trees claw at the house like they're pulling it apart
and i'm staring at my hands again
and i got some pills from somewhere
trying to make it through the summer
this place ought be condemned
this place ought be condemned
