The Beatings

LYRICS BY DEACON BURNS

Verse 1

You got me coming going leaving staying suffocating breathing in your Les of sin your words poison from what you saying I 'm just a slave so i’ll behave i guess i crave the beating Let me go your so shallow but still i find myself drowning I can't swim in this glass of gin so bartender please keep pouring like The rain all on my brain it's such a game we’re playing As i lie awake in piss i can't believe that this Is the way it turned out i'm a burn out razor to wrist As i lie awake in shit i can't believe that this is it And all i get is i can't get ain't this a bitch

Chorus

Wishing i was someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Verse 2

I can't stop until i drop and rot so i keep on going On and on the band plays on my heart been torn i'm dying One night stand now i can’t stand and in the sand shes running While i’m in the snow my will is low wheelchair wheels keep on turning Life is like a jagged knife and in my back it's stabbing I try to run away everyday more crazy from waiting As i lie awake in piss i can’t believe that this Is the way it turned out i'm a burn out razor to wrist As i lie awake in shit i can't believe that this is it And all i get is i can't get ain’t this a bitch

Chorus

Wishing i was someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere

Someone else somewhere else anyone anywhere
