09:35 AM / PRETENDING NOTHINGS WRONG

(album: FRIDAY FOREVER - 2020)

Waking on a whiskey haze
Sleeping, we can fuck both ways
Hope I didn't call you late
Remember, now you run away

How I'd get home?
Where's the damn phone?
Turn onto my side, I'm straight
Wallet's by the bed, I'm safe
Stop the fucking world, I'm flayed
What a fucking mess I've made

Nights that sabotage my days
Maybe that's the way I'm made
A Jeep that never had no brakes, no
Can't make it to the bed till the weight's gone
Praying I'm a man when I wake up
When I wake up

Pretending nothing's wrong
Pretending nothing's wrong
When all the time your pain goes on

Vocal at the bathroom, wait
Swore I wouldn't wake up late
Slip into the past, it's faith
Fingers in my throat, fish bait

And that's the eggs gone
And that's the legs gone
Forehead on the floor, I'm straight
Face against the tiles, I'm saved
Stop the fucking world, I'm flayed
What a fucking mess I've made
What a fucking mess I've made

Pretending nothing's wrong
Pretending nothing's wrong
When all the time your pain goes on

Don't look now but your loneliness is showing
It's in your face, girl, the heartaches are glowing
