Ember

(álbum: Jackpot Juicer - 2022)

It kicked my ass, I felt so bad
I look like crap, there's no life-hack
It's pounding through my temples

It feels like every season, my nose is plugged or leaking
Don't ask me out, I'm indoor
We sneeze in Sacramento

Achoo, achoo, achoo
The pollen, you so rude
The mucus I produce is more than just a nuisance
It's abuse

Achoo, achoo
The pills aren't working dude
Goggle vision, life in prison
I'm impaired, I can't taste my food

Keep it all to yourself
Keep it out of my sight
Hold your tongue and hold tight
Just to prevent a fight, yeah

All to yourself
Out of my sight
Accumulate your spite
Though you know it ain't right

You wanna burn some money?
Hop on a flight to Panama
We gotta get under the sun

You feel the rapture waning?
You know we can't just carry on
Gotta reverse some damage done

Let me back inside
I'll surrender, I'll surrender
We can make this right
Know it won't happen overnight

But if you let me back inside
There's still an ember, do you remember
How to build a fire?
I need to see you glowing bright

If you let me back inside

I get above the frustration
And put my head in the clouds
This permanent vacation
Eventually makes you drown

I could have sworn that I fixed myself
Cause I read a bunch of shit about mental health
But then I took another drink and I said I felt
Like I don't need to think about nothing, or the things that I do

We've tried it the hard way, little to no change
Let's take another chance
We've dwelled on our mistakes, taken our own space
We deserve another chance

Wanna reanimate you
I wanna see you flying high
Up in the clouds where you belong

You wanna burn some money?
Hop on a flight to Panama
We gotta get under the sun

Let me back inside
I'll surrender, I'll surrender
We can make this right
Know it won't happen overnight

But if you let me back inside
There's still an ember, do you remember
How to build a fire?
I need to see you glowing bright

If you let me back inside

I hope you follow through (Inside)
I hope you follow through
