lyrics

I've got this chronic sickness
I can feel it running through my bones

Some things you have to live with
And learn to deal with on your own

Because I seem so listless
They always said I had a heart of stone

Someday I'm going to fix this
And learn to not be so alone

I never thought I'd be here left out
To my own devices

I've found myself at the bottom of a well again
And I can't climb up, no matter how I try
I can't climb up, no, I can't make it that high

I've found myself at the bottom of a well again
I can't climb up, but I won't give up this fight

This feeling I'm lamenting
Nothing can stop me hating

Remind myself of endings
Turned much less isolating

I never thought I'd be left to my own devices

I've found myself at the bottom of a well again
And I can't climb up, no matter how I try
I can't climb up, no, I can't make it that high

I've found myself at the bottom of a well again
I can't climb up, but I won't give up this fight

I know it looks like I've been doing fine but I'm suffocating
I am signalling that I don’t want you to go (x3)

As these days grow dark and lonely
I really need you here with me
(Because)
No matter what happens you’ll always have my back
I know that it’s the truth
My friends don’t need to tell me that

Awesome album from start to finish. PW's destinctive style is present throughout, but every track is a fresh effort, and the album successfully transitions from driving rock to mellow contemplation without sounding forced or rehashed. I'm not as big of a fan of the remixes, but I appreciate their inclusion and unique perspective. Hard to ask for more than 16 tracks with no skips! theCANderson
