Lyrics

Well I say it?s mine, this mixed-up mind, I?ll fix myself
I?m so confined within my wine, gonna burst my cell
So I taper down to drink and drown, I don?t lash out anymore
But dizzy me in misery wel my memory of pain is so poor

Pour me another, I can stand so I?m okay.
Listen to me sister I don?t need a mother
to say ?Hey boy, you?re pushing me away??

Feeling dull is criminal when you?re meant to shine
You give the world your only pearl, but they don?t want the shell, the slime
Heaven says c?mon get off your knees, we?re getting bored
And so I write my wrongs into my songs and hope that after I won?t feel so poor

Pour me another, I can stand so I?m okay.
Listen to me sister I don?t need a mother
to say ?Hey boy, you?re pushing me away??

I could sleep forever, [make] no mistake
Shaking me does not make me awake
But you say ?this somnambulation?s getting critical, it?s pitiful

So fine, I?ll find the time to fix myself
I started out with 99 up on the wall,
now there?s just an empty shelf

My song is done, I?m down to one more chance, just one more
But you know how I hate ?em, your ultimatums.

Pour me another, I can stand so I?m okay.
Listen to me sister I don?t need a mother
to say ?Hey boy, you?re pushing me away?
