lyrics

What's the point of living
If I ain't spilling
Myself in every crevice?
And if time's worth keeping
I'll set my watch this evening
To see if I can really grasp it.

'Cause I've got demons and a bone to pick
Like everybody else, like everybody else
'Cause I've got demons and a bone to pick
Like everybody else, with everybody else
'Cause I've got demons and a bone to pick
Like everybody else, with decadence
'Cause I've got demons and a bone to pick
Like everybody else

The scraps between my teeth
So rotten they could be anything, I was wrong
To pick them out and not swallow them whole
I'm gonna need to reach
If I'm gonna get by just grasping at straws
It's all I really got, it's all I really got
But not for long.

What's the point of failure
if every dead endeavor
Is so delicately measured?
For once I'd like to wallow
Eye to eye with sorrow
And let the sadness be my pleasure

'Cause I've got demons and a bone to pick
Like everybody else, like everybody else
'Cause I've got demons and a bone to pick
Like everybody else, with everybody else
'Cause I've got demons and a bone to pick
Like everybody else, with decadence
'Cause I've got demons and a bone to pick
Like everybody else

The scraps between my teeth
So rotten they could be anything, I was wrong
To pick them out and not swallow them whole
I'm gonna need to reach
If I'm gonna get by just grasping at straws
It's all I really got, it's all I really got
But not for long.

'Cause I've got demons and a bone to pick
Like everybody else, like every
body.
