Proper Dose

(album: Proper Dose - 2018)

Highs and lows are how I flow
My favorite mirror's there
I wanna look at what I think I know
But all I do is stare
Too long

I defy the proper dose
'Cause I'm alone and I don't care
And though that grass is greener
It just don't even compare
At all, at all

All this time I wanna give you back
I feel opaque and absentee
Am I just going through the motions
Or is this how I'll be?
Barely focused anymore
The haze is all that I can see
Red bottle, white cap

Slime in my stomach slowly turning
Staring at the grout in the tile
Dry is my heave and my head is burning
Think I'll be in here a while
I'm gone

And my cousin's age is turning
Growing into a man from a child
I wanna watch him play, wanna see him score
Wanna be around 'cause I need to make him smile
Some more, some more

All this time I wanna give you back
I feel opaque and absentee
Am I just going through the motions
Or is this how I'll be?
Barely focused anymore
The haze is all that I can see
Red bottle, white cap

Red bottle, white cap
