Problems
Gotta take the life as it comes
Even if I'm living in the dark
Guess it won't harm me a bit
Nope, not even a pinch
I was brokenhearted by a bitch
Who chose to call it quits
Without a minute's notice
Now her lips are swollen
By another asshole worse than myself
And it's only natural that shit happens,
But for what purpose? I don't know
I've been a nervous wreck
Since I was introduced to certain meds
That would hurt the rest of the world
But I've been getting used to burning them
Whether alone or with my friends,
Vibing in my bedroom like there's
No tomorrow, higher than dreams
Walking in some nightmares
Peace is all smoke and mirrors from here
Pass that reefer and I'm blowing it
I'm past the point of being numb
If I had another choice,
I'd fucking piss it up the wall quicker
Than I could miss the toilet bowl
At this rate, I'd settle for decaying
While my joints are falling off
I'm talking amputation
Before I'm in the morgue
