The Clarity Of Morning

[Verse 1:]
A master actor, a perfect liar
All smiles played out with expert timing
It starts like rust, slow and silent
But grows like fire, swift and violent

[Verse 2:]
I walk much slower now I've got no direction
All bends are blind, all cracks chasms
I love and hate in equal measures the freedom from precision
That living like this offers, but habits are so easily formed
And not so easily forgotten

[Bridge:]
It's nothing that some wine can't sort out
Hit the offy, back a bottle
Drop two sleeping pills and hope to pass out
The run has got me spinning around and down and out

[Refrain:]
I hate the person I've become
Hate the foil, hate the filters
Hate the blister packs but I won't stop
The run has got me spinning around and down and out
Praying that the clarity of morning brings
A peace to ease the mourning of
A loss of control as two lives split in half from a whole

[Outro:]
She'd say 'I miss you when you're gone'
And I would wish that I was off anywhere else
I'm sorry, when I said I didn't love you
What I meant was I hate myself
