I'm not careful enough I keep tearing through love Like a tetherball swinging til it's all tangled up Whipping through the air til I'm stuck I go through life like an eight ball Til the powder stains the table And I can read the price tag but keep scraping off the label Telling myself that I'm stable Laugh it off Say I'm fine Cause it's harder to get better than to lie lie lie Drinking mexican coke Sitting on the sidewalk to smoke Cane sugar steadies me and tells me a joke Is life everything that you hoped? Laugh it off Say I'm fine Cause it's harder to get better than to lie lie lie Sitting in your car Curled up like a roach in the dark Telling you the truth as the curtain slowly parts Asking for another start
