artist: POSTCARD
album: This Is Therapy
***track 1: this is therapy ***************************
you need to get out of your head
you need to take in all i've said
you have to give up this selfish lie
you have to clean up your waste of life
get your head out of the clouds
get your knees off of the ground
get your mind set on getting free
forget yourself this is therapy
you need some help now (leave me alone)
just let it out (leave me alone)
we're gonna set you free (leave me alone)
listen to me this is therapy
listen to me
(leave me alone)
***track 2: i told you so***************************
we've got walls
we've got stop signs
we've got white lies
we've got drugs
with no prescriptions
we've get addictions
and it's times like these that make me see we're going nowhere
there's nothing you can do to stop this now
it make's me sad to be so right
we're still here in the gutter
we'll be here for all our lives
it make's me sad to be so right
i'm just like all the others
we'll be here for all our lives
we're not strong
we're not fighting
we're all hiding
we've got drugs
we've got no hope
i told you so
it make's me sad to be so right
we're still here in the gutter
we'll be here for all our lives
it make's me sad to be so right
i'm just like all the others
we'll be here for all our lives
i never promised you that this would all get better
i told you everything that's wrong down to the letter
(can't stop this now)
it make's me sad to be so right
we're still here in the gutter
we'll be here for all our lives
it make's me sad to be so right
i'm just like all the others
we'll be here for all our lives
***track 3: sick and tired***************************
doctor, i can't seem to sleep
doctor, is something wrong with me
father, are you proud of me
father, is something wrong with me
i'm sick of being alone
i'm sick of feeling useless
i'm tired of this process
i'm tired of no progress
i'm sick of needing help
i'm sick of trying to cure me
i want you to hear me
i need you to hear me
officer, this is all a mistake
officer, can you cut me a break
father, help me undo what i've done
father, can you help your failing son
i'm sick of being alone
i'm sick of feeling useless
i'm tired of this process
i'm tired of no progress
i'm sick of needing help
i'm sick of trying to cure me
i want you to hear me
i need you to hear me
keep me lock and key
social quarantine
i'm not fine no
i'm not safe so
stay the hell away
i'm sick of being alone
i'm sick of feeling useless
i'm tired of this process
i'm tired of no progress
i'm sick of needing help
i'm sick of trying to cure me
i want you to hear me
i need you to hear me
somebody help me
***track 4: forget it***************************
send a postcard from hell to you
wish you were here
its what you put me through
no fear you're dead to me
meet my jealousy
i'm on my way
don't try and stop me
will you forget
those nights we spent
or will you burn the bed
how the hell will you forget
those things we said
or those things in red
how the hell will you forget
give me the keys i'm fine to drive
don't call me tomorrow to see if i'm alive
i'll be dead i'll be dead to the world
i'll be dead all because of some girl
i'll be in the gutter
leave me alone
i'll break every bottle
break every bone
i'll sharpen my teeth on the shattered glass
make my tongue bleed
bite it off at last
send a postcard from paradise
glad you're gone this time
your forgiveness means shit to me
burn in your jealousy
burn those sheets we held so tightly
throw the phone we talked on nightly
cut the hair i ran my fingers through
i won't cut anything i swear
anything but you
will you forget
those nights we spent
or will you burn the bed
how the hell will you forget
those things we said
or those things in red
how the fuck will you forget
***track 5: generic sad song***************************
on and on
all these sad songs repeat every day and night
on and on
all these sad songs they are all i can write
there's a sovereign of hearts
i'm a jester of the art
and it never seems fair
that the injuries of time
always seem to rhyme
they always keep me awake and singing
it makes us happy to be sad together
on and on
all these sad songs repeat every day and night
on and on
all these sad songs they are all i can write
but these words won't change you
and i'll always be
on and on singing sad songs until everyone is sad like me
there's a silence that reigns
there's a telephone that rings
but it never has the answer
there's a cloud above my bed
there's a ringing in my head
it always keeps me awake and singing
it makes us happy to be sad together
on and on
all these sad songs repeat every day and night
on and on
all these sad songs they are all i can write
but these words won't change you
and i'll always be
on and on singing sad songs until everyone is sad
let's cry out for each other
let's pity one another
let's bring this congregation to their knees
on and on
singing sad songs it is all that i do
on and on
all these sad songs they are all about you
on and on
all these sad songs repeat every day and night
on and on
all these sad songs they are all i can write
but these words won't change you
and i'll always be
on and on singing sad songs until everyone is sad like me
***track 6: dig deeper***************************
sometimes i suffer the sorrows of Solare
when did i stop dreaming
when did i stop caring
i'm slowly circling the drain
dig deeper
grab your shovels if you got 'em
dig deeper
you'll find me at the bottom
dig deeper
grab your shovels if you got 'em
dig deeper
you'll find
take me from this hole
it's getting deeper and it shows
save me if you can
don't leave me crushed and bruised
another victim of my abuse
please just grab my hand
dig deeper
grab your shovels if you got 'em
dig deeper
you'll find me at the bottom
dig deeper
grab your shovels if you got 'em
dig deeper
you'll find me
you'll find me at the bottom
***track 7: the sunny side of suicide***************************
the sunny side of suicide is shining of me are you proud
now we've got a way out
the sunny side of suicide is shining crimson on the ground
these painted prayers will save you now
save me now
they won't cry tonight
i'll be out of site
they won't look for me
i'll be gone you'll see
the sunny side of suicide is shining light on an open wound
let this body turn to light
the sunny side will last forever this will all be over soon
bid this dark goodnight
goodnight
this is the easy way out
this is without a doubt
better its better than trying to
live this life now
what am i gonna do with myself
trapped inside this personal hell
what am i gonna do with myself
they won't cry tonight
i'll be out of site
they won't look for me
i'll be gone you'll see
(you'll see the light)
***track 8: the mourning of glory***************************
glory steps up to the edge of a forty story ledge
her nerves get tight she counts down from five
four forever we're alive and
free two be one
now's the time to jump
we're going home glory
which way's the road
we're going home glory
still so far to go
we're going home glory
which way's the road
we're going home
the short sword of success slices a smile across her neck
and in her last bleeding breathe she steps right off the edge
the mourning of glory soars through the dawn
we're finally going home
now's the time to jump
glory jump
we're going home glory
which way's the road
we're going home glory
still so far to go
we're going home glory
which way's the road
we're going home
***track 9: tomb for two***************************
what has happened to us
heart to heart dust to dust
we're too young now to expire
the lights flash in our eyes
but there's one more surprise
will see light or see fire
will they bury me
next to you
bury me
in a tomb for two
there is nothing to fear
i'll see you again my dear
we'll be together on the other side
whether darkness or light
i will do all i might
to make sure we're together after life
will they bury me
next to you
bury me
in a tomb for two
***track 10: i'll get better***************************
i remember you
i know how you worried
i've been a mess
i confess to all that i've ruined
but i'm waking up
i'm learning how
i'm owning up
i'll work this out
and i promise you
and i mean it too
i'll get better
i'm trying and it's working
i hope it makes you proud
the pain will pass
i'm getting back the peace i used to own
but i'm waking up
i'm learning how
i'm owning up
i'll work this out
but i have to sing
about everything that hurts
and i promise you
and i mean it too
i'll get better
i'll get better
i'll get better
i'll get better
