back on the chain
until it breaks
the same story
same mistakes
another toke
another dime
gone up in smoke
just one more time
when will i ever learn?
light up my sorrow
watch it burn
the higher i go
the bigger the fall
the closer we get
the less i need you all
i said it before
and yet i stumbled again
will my head hit the floor
or will i make amends
up in smoke
the same story
shame and glory
a struggling man
still in his prime
gone up in smoke
just one more time
when will i ever learn?
light up my sorrow
watch it burn
the higher i go
the bigger the fall
the closer we get
the less i need you all
i said it before
and yet i stumbled again
will my head hit the floor
or will i make amends
but my heart says
no no no
that's it
i've had it
i'm breaking the habit
a bit late for a clean slate
i need to relieve my stress
oh yes
but my heart says
no no fuck no
get back in the groove
before i lose my mind
no mountain i can't move
no mountain i can't climb
i've got something to prove
i'll withstand the heat
no mountain i can't move
never accept defeat
no mountain i can't move
never accept defeat
out
cut it
out
i'll withstand the heat
out
cut it
out
never accept defeat
up in smoke
the same story
blaze of glory
free my head from all this grime
gone up in smoke
just one more time
when will i ever learn?
light up my sorrow
watch it burn
the higher i go
the bigger the fall
the closer we get
the less i need you all
i said it before
and yet i stumbled again
will my head hit the floor
or will i make amends
but my heart says
no no no
that's it
i've had it
i'm breaking the habit
a bit late for a clean slate
i need to relieve my stress
oh yes
but my heart says
no no fuck no
