[INTRO — clean guitar, amp hum]
Okay
Yeah
Yeah… yeah…
Yeah yeah yeah
Let’s go
[VERSE 1]
The bedroom light is burning out again
I hear your voice through the television
Another night pretending I’m alright
Another morning I don’t recognize
I keep my jacket by the front door
Like I’m gonna leave this all behind
But every road just circles back around
To the same mistakes I swore I’d leave behind
[PRE-CHORUS]
And I know, I know
You tried to pull me through
But I was too damn busy
Trying not to feel the truth
(the truth… truth…)
[HOOK]
I’ve been rolling not floating
Getting so high I forgot what we’re celebrating
I’m not floating cause the pills are controlling
Me everyday so much my family stopped calling
I’d rather be with you but I’m to busy crying
Knowing you walked away before I could be floating
My habits are what kept us apart, my eyes always drifting
Now I’m stuck here with these pills, every day just repeating
(Repeating… repeating…)
(Ooooh, I’m repeating…)
[VERSE 2]
I see your picture sitting on the shelf
And hate the man I turned into myself
You gave me every reason I could need
I gave you every reason you should leave
The phone lights up, I watch it ring
I know exactly who it could be
But I don’t have the words to tell you
That I’m still the same kid underneath
(underneath…)
[PRE-CHORUS]
And I know, I know
You can’t keep waiting here
While I disappear
A little more every year
(every year…)
[HOOK]
I’ve been rolling not floating
Getting so high I forgot what we’re celebrating
I’m not floating cause the pills are controlling
Me everyday so much my family stopped calling
I’d rather be with you but I’m to busy crying
Knowing you walked away before I could be floating
My habits are what kept us apart, my eyes always drifting
Now I’m stuck here with these pills, every day just repeating
(Oh-oh-oh… repeating…)
[BRIDGE — drums drop, guitar rings]
Maybe if I wake up tomorrow
And finally look myself in the eyes
I can find the person you believed in
Before I let him slowly die
(Don’t let me go…)
I don’t wanna be this way forever
I don’t wanna lose another year
If there’s anything left worth saving
I swear I’ll start from here
[FINAL HOOK — full band]
I’ve been rolling not floating
Getting so high I forgot what we’re celebrating
I’m not floating cause the pills are controlling
Me everyday so much my family stopped calling
I’d rather be with you but I’m to busy crying
Knowing you walked away before I could be floating
My habits are what kept us apart, my eyes always drifting
Now I’m stuck here with these pills, every day just repeating
(Repeating…)
(Not floating…)
(Oooohhh…)
[OUTRO — guitar fades]
I’ve been rolling…
Not floating…
(hmm-mm… hmm-mm…)
Still repeating…
