Plan B Alternative

[Intro]
Kick the dust off
Spit the rust out
Same old ceiling
Staring me down
[Verse 1]
Ashtray afternoon
Broken clock
Same tune
Rent late
Heart sore
Clothes piled on the floor
Every friend turned ghost
Every promise
Toast
Talk cheap
Teeth grit
But I ain’t done yet
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve had my face in the carpet
My hope in the dark
Still hear that voice in my head say
“Get up
Restart”
[Chorus]
There’s no plan B
No out for me
Even when I’m down and out
I’m gonna fight till I get it right
Yeah
No plan B
Just this cracked belief
Even when I’m blacked and bruised
I’m gonna fight till I break on through (hey)
[Verse 2]
Landline cut again
Red slip in the mail bin
Mom says “move back home”
I’d rather starve alone
Band flyers on the pole
Three chords
One goal
Laugh now
That’s fine
I’ll carve it out in time
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve had my head in the sink
Dreams circling the drain
But that itch in my chest
Still spits back at the pain
[Chorus]
There’s no plan B
No out for me
Even when I’m down and out
I’m gonna fight till I get it right
Yeah
No plan B
Just this cracked belief
Even when I’m blacked and bruised
I’m gonna fight till I break on through
[Bridge]
Kicked in doors
Burned-out cars
Same old scars
Same old scars
But I won’t fold
Can’t let go
If this is all I’ve got
I’m holding on
[Instrumental Break – guitar solo
Long bends and feedback over main riff]
[Breakdown]
No plan B
(oh, oh)
No way out
(oh, oh)
I’m on empty
But I’m still loud
[Chorus]
There’s no plan B
No out for me
Even when I’m down and out
I’m gonna fight till I get it right
Yeah
No plan B
Just this cracked belief
Even when I’m blacked and bruised
I’m gonna fight till I break on through
[Outro]
No plan B
Just you and me
Me and this fight
Till I get it right

rock, Early 90s grunge / alternative rock: fuzzy rhythm guitars, roomy live drums, male vocals raw and slightly overdriven. Verses sit in a laid-back, grimy groove; choruses slam with doubled power-chords and stacked shouts. Mid-song guitar solo drenched in wah and feedback, with vocal breaks where the band rides the riff. Wide, saturated mix, bass glued to the kick, cymbals splashing hard in the hook., grunge, vocal, alternative rock, breaks, hard rock
