lyrics

They said things'll get worse before they get better
By this they mean 'things'll get worse for you'
At best I was weak from all the blood letters
and all they said sadly came true

Its like my head against the writing on the wall
My face is so close I can't read anything at all

It was a retreat from an army of bedwetters
I've felt this before but it still stung
will things get worse?
ask me when the checks run out
But I was finally able to breathe with my neck under the bottom rung

just like my head against it

Grabbed by the hair dragged to the killing floor
My punishment for not following your war
But what you gonna do
When we find you
You tired empty suit
What you gonna do

They said things'll get worse before they get better
Yeah we've heard it all before
Nothing changed when the checks ran out
and all my blood was on the floor

just like my head against it

Grabbed by the hair dragged to the killing floor
My punishment for not following your war
But what you gonna do
when we find you
You tired empty suit
What you gonna do

When we find you
