Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Keys on the hook
But the car’s long gone
Towed from the lot while I was in the ER
Got a limp in my step and a list of meds
And a stack of forms thick as a cheap memoir
Phone on hold as the coffee goes cold
Same old loop
Same old polite delay
“You’re still under review
Sir
We’ll let you know soon”
Been hearing that speech since last May
[Chorus]
Paperwork and pill bottles
Empty driveway
Heavy head
Losing my car
My health
My balance
But I ain’t done yet
I ain’t dead
You can stamp that file a thousand times
Hide my name in some dark cabinet bin
I’m losing ground
Losing sleep
Losing sanity
But I swear I’m gonna win
[Verse 2]
Nurse says “rest
” but the rent says “pay”
Doctor nods slow
Signs another page
“Limit your stress
” like it’s some light switch
While I’m arguing my pain to a stranger on wage
They want proof of the nights I shook
Proof of the days I couldn’t stand
How you photocopy a brain that breaks?
How you fax a trembling hand?
[Chorus]
Paperwork and pill bottles
Empty driveway
Heavy head
Losing my car
My health
My balance
But I ain’t done yet
I ain’t dead
You can stamp that file a thousand times
Hide my name in some dark cabinet bin
I’m losing ground
Losing sleep
Losing sanity
But I swear I’m gonna win
[Bridge]
I used to drive till the dawn came up
Now I count steps to the kitchen light
But every line I sign
Every call I make
Is another little way I fight
[Chorus]
Paperwork and pill bottles
Empty driveway
Heavy head
Losing my car
My health
My balance
But I ain’t done yet
I ain’t dead
You can stamp that file a thousand times
Hide my name in some dark cabinet bin
I’m losing ground
Losing sleep
Losing sanity
But I swear I’m gonna win
Yeah I’m bruised
I’m broke
I’m tired as hell
But I swear I’m gonna win
