Drunk
Dayseeker Lyrics

You have bones, they have to break
You are fragile and vulnerable, and people will inevitably hurt you.

So stay drunk for the weekend
To distract yourself from pain and problems, you turn to alcohol and other vices for temporary relief.

Peace of mind, on borrowed time
You know that your sense of calm is fleeting and that you are just avoiding facing reality.

So forget what you're thinking
You try to push aside your thoughts and feelings in order to avoid confronting difficult truths.

Temporary fiction
You create a false reality in your mind to escape from your problems.

Can't control your diction
Your drinking and drug use make it hard to speak clearly and coherently.

Speak slow
Despite struggling to form words, you continue to rely on substances.

Told me that you see her
You are haunted by someone from your past and can't stop thinking about them.

Told you that's the reaper
You know that this person is toxic and will only bring you more pain and suffering.

But you know
Despite your better judgment, you continue to long for this person.

Where can you run
You feel trapped and unable to escape from your problems and pain.

Where can you hide
You can't find anywhere to seek refuge from the harsh realities of life.

You have guilt, for your mistakes
You regret things you have done in the past and feel responsible for the pain you have caused.

So stay drunk 'til the year ends
You hope that by staying drunk you can escape the pain of the past year.

Hallucinate, you see her face
You see the person who has hurt you everywhere, even when they are not actually there.

And praise her like a godsend
Despite the pain this person has caused you, you continue to put them on a pedestal.

Dopamine deficient
You are unable to experience pleasure without turning to drugs or alcohol.

Crave her like an addiction
You are addicted to the person who has hurt you and can't stop wanting them.

Let go
You try to move on from this person, but it's hard to do so.

Heaven on the weekend
Drinking and partying provide temporary relief and make you feel alive.

Diving off the deep end
You are risking everything in order to feel something.

Breathe slow
Despite the chaos around you, you try to stay calm and breathe slowly.

When the air gets thinner every step you take
Life becomes harder with each step you take, and you struggle to keep moving forward.

When death is coming closer
You are becoming more aware of your own mortality and the fragility of life.

And all at once you will find
One day, everything will become clear and you will finally understand.

This is what it takes to be alive
In order to truly live, you have to confront pain, suffering, and difficult truths.

You have loved, and you have lost
You have experienced both joy and heartbreak in your life.

So stay drunk if it hurts less
You try to numb the pain of heartbreak by staying drunk.

Prescription-fed, to fix your head
You turn to medication to help you cope with mental health struggles.

But nothing can repair it
Despite your efforts, some things cannot be fixed.

Falling doesn't kill you
Even when you hit rock bottom, you can still survive.

You see what we were put through
You can't help but reflect on the suffering you have endured.

By her
The pain you have experienced was caused by the person you loved and lost.

Bottom of the deep end
You are in the midst of a downward spiral.

Covered in a cold sweat
Your struggles have left you feeling anxious and stressed.

Burn slow
The pain is intense, but it is best to try to stay calm and endure it.

When you're drunk and bitter
Drinking and dwelling on pain only create more bitterness and suffering.
