lyrics

I keep waking up every morning
In the same clothes that I wore the night before
Like something leftover that I wore out and threw
In the daunting pile on my closet floor
With all the rest of my regrets
I'll catch up to them when I'm at my very best
But maybe it's my worst lie
I've never been so unsure of anything

One of these days I'm gonna clean up my mess
Just like my desktop icons, I will get to it
But even those keep stacking
All the littlest things keep stacking
I keep up waking up each morning

With the same could have, should have done more
I was a lighthouse crumbling into the sea
When you were knocking down my front door
With the same could have, should have done more
I was a lighthouse crumbling into the sea
When you were knocking down my front door
Now I have grown accustomed to the way I need to deal with you
Yeah, there are no excuses

For trying to sleep off all the years I couldn't
For giving in to the puissant urge to fall behind
As I fan the flames but try to keep my face hidden
I'm running out of ways to step aside
I keep waking up every morning
In the same clothes that I wore the night before
I've got a laundry list of limitations
At least consistently unsure
I keep waking up every morning
In the same clothes that I wore the night before
I've got a laundry list of false alarms
At least consistently unsure

With the same could have, should have done more
I was a lighthouse crumbling into the sea
When you were knocking down my front door
With the same could have, should have done more
I was a lighthouse crumbling into the sea
When you were knocking down my front door
Now I have grown accustomed to the way I need to deal with you
Yeah, there are no excuses for me
