The Unraveling

(albüm: The New OK - 2020)

Something's gonna happen when you pull that string
About to take the stitching off of everything
The unraveling is happening
The pressure to be perfect made you wind so tight
Worked all day, tossed and turned all night

The unraveling is happening
You stripped your screws and you broke your spring

The gears you grind are mired and stiff
You drive that car right off the cliff
Shift your hip as the music plods
Burned your bridges, throw your rods
No matter how you break it down
Your friends all scatter when the shit comes down

The unraveling is happening
Whole world coming apart right at the seams

You sometimes think you could be so free
If you drove a little faster into that tree
You hide your feelings in the sound so loud
Smile so big and walk so proud
Your family's in horror 'cause you're off the rails
Tears spilled all along the bloody trail

The unraveling is happening
You lost it all and you had everything
