Delta. Oscar. Whiskey. November.
It's what I tell myself when I'm down
When there's no one to hold my head above ground
When my pulse drowns out this empty town
It's what I tell myself when I'm down
I'm all I need around
It feels like I'm headed upstream again
Fell back on habits and has-beens
Should I just give up? Should I just give in?
I'm alive
A fool would be unsatisfied
But I see knives and storm clouds when I close my eyes
I just can't stand all the monsters in my head
They tell me "stay asleep"
They tell me "stay asleep"
A thousand tiny teeth are sinking in
Peel the skin 'til it bleeds
Peel the skin 'til it bleeds
From the top of this mountain I live on
My only view is all I've done wrong
It plays over and over again in my head in my head in my head
So I live with these monsters under my bed
They tell me "stay asleep"
They tell me "stay asleep"
I have to fight to keep my eyes open
Peel the skin til it bleeds
Peel the skin
