lyrics

I’m a long way from okay
Still I’m better than before
Cleared the lightning from my head
And I crawled up off the floor

I got rid of all the guns
And I flushed down all the pills
I finally made my way to bed
I’ve got the shakes, I’ve got the chills

I ain’t thinking clear
No, I ain’t thinking clear
I’m running on pure fear

I just can’t get no traction
And I’m avoiding all the mirrors
All I’m hearing now is static
How the hell did I get here?

I ain’t thinking clear
No, I ain’t thinking clear
I’m running on pure fear

I didn’t mean to hurt nobody
Still I did it just the same
No one hates me more than I do
Broke down by guilt and shame

I ain’t thinking clear
No, I ain’t thinking clear
No, I ain’t thinking clear
I’m running on pure fear
