[Verse 1]
Forever's not long enough
Said, "I'm fine, you don't need to follow up"
But my mind's a storm that'll swallow me up
So it's SOS 'til tomorrow comes
Life's one tough pill and I got trouble swallowing it
One cup up and another one following it
Made my bed, now let me just wallow in it
Heavy head, getting real good at hollowing it out
[Chorus]
Forever's too long
Let's both waste time then we'll move on
Maybe that's something you can prove wrong
If not, pack my bag, put my shoes on, then I'm gone
I've been basement to basement
Each one feels more fucking vacant
Story of my life, that's an undеrstatement
Gotta get it right, or I don't think I'll makе it
I don't think I'll make it
If this is fate I don't think I can escape it
This is my life and I don't wanna waste it
You said to smile so I did and fucking faked it
End of conversation, uh
[Bridge]
Da-da-na
Da-da-da-da-da-da, na
Da-da-da-da-da-da, na
Da-da-da-da-da-da, na
[Verse 2]
Yeah, the days fly by, but the nights always last long
Not on the same page that we began on
Call this my "try not to crash" song
I'm falling fast and there's nothing to land on
How can I stand tall with nothing to stand on?
You want me dead like we're stuck in a stand-off
Goddamn, every day tends to drag on
You seem to fall through like what we planned on
[Chorus]
Forever's too long
Let's both waste time then we'll move on
Maybe that's something you can prove wrong
If not, pack my bag, put my shoes on, then I'm gone
I've been basement to basement
Ea-ea-each one feels more fucking vacant
Story of my life, that's an understatement
Gotta get it right, or I don't think I'll make it
I don't think I'll make it
If this is fate I don't think I can escape it
This is my life and I don't wanna waste it
You said to smile so I did and fucking faked it
End of conversation, uh
[Outro: Max Mittelman]
There's no sign that the evils of this world are disappearing
That hasn't changed since before I became a hero
So I guess that means I haven't really made any difference
