Daydrunk

(album: Instigator - 2016)

Daydrunk
Is what I wanna be
When I'm tired of being seen
Daydrunk
Is what I wanna be
When I'm tired of being seen

I'm seen in my house
I'm seen in my town
I'm seen, I show up, I'm responsible
I wanna blow it out

But daydrunk is what I used to be
No Jimmy Buffet song
No island imagery
Old men
Dying retirees
Bellies on the bar
Elbows up with me

I was 25
I was terrified
Locking stalls, cleaning lines off the toilet seats
Afraid of running out

You are the drill, you are the test
The big inviting nothingness
The parachute, the great escape
From "comatose" to "wide-awake"
You are the drill, you are the test
The big inviting nothingness
The parachute, the great escape
From some place to any place

Alone in my house
The threat in my mouth
The lie that looks true when my life's too good
I gotta lay it out

Daydrunk
Is what I wanna be
When I'm tired of being free
Daydrunk
Is what I wanna be
When I'm tired of being free
