i've spent five days trying to make my life right
i found some courage when i stared down the headlights
but i don't remember anything i did after midnight
i've been using my inside voice to speak
i was so so sure that it was all i would need
but the place of my youth still shudders and bleeds
and i once looked for black but now look for red
and my dreams are all stored in different heads
and i slept so easy in this strange screaming bed and
i couldn't remember the time or my name
but i told myself it'll all be okay,
you tried and failed but it's not too late
