Paroles de Unstable Boy

Staring down the barrel of another holiday
Force-fed a christmas carol of another time, another place, another way
What child is this who, who laid to rest
On Mary�s lap is sleeping
Well, what child is this who, who feels so blessed
Yet cannot keep from weeping
pre-chorus
I should be tending to the horses who intend to cart my joy
From now into forever, I�m just a lowly unstable boy
I�m a failure on a journey, but my strength is gathering
And it�s only fair that I make it there, yeah, I�m on my way to mattering
chorus
But all the way, on the way, I couldn�t contain my fear
My lips only look rosy cuz my skin looks so white in here
Shred up my fingers on this bottle cap that won�t twist off
Aching for the syrup that could cure me of this hacking cough
Ask me how I�m feeling and I�ll say Im okay
though my mind is reeling, can�t think of anything better to say
Is that what you get for running a yellow light�
Piss full of regret and a fix that doesn�t last
I'm a super-cali-fragile piece of fucked up à la I need a spoonful of something fast
pre-chorus
chorus
bridge
Stupid fucking world of mine
You keep moving the fucking finish line chorus
