lyrics

I wish I was a rose on a crown of thorn
its all that I need
all that I need
Cynderblock

I wish I was a bird on wings I’d soar
Its all that I need
All that I need
Cynderblock

I can still remember how the waves they came
It was early in December when the days were gray
We tip toed tightropes and razor blades
Stray to strange places that we can’t escape
Oh Johnny laws off of the job
Chasing old cravings with the drop of a jaw
In a pinprick riddle still you fiddle my brain
Paint me with syringes as you tickle my veins
Lay me Lady Lachrymose (ahhhh)
Ive been stirring in the actions of the passive
In an alley met the holy ghost
Shes been lurking in the rafters of my attic/addict

And all I really have is another god damn
And a sad ass reason to be who I am

My malt liquor moon beam’s a dream weaver
Peter piper picked green cheeba
Now we see speakers bleed
Teachers breathe ether
Walking down the street screaming
“make me a believer”
I was always taught to keep in mind my P’s and Q’s
So I can know when I’m a win and I can see I’m gonna lose
Shes been riding down the highway with a bottle full of blues
Her shoes is on the throttle as they wobble with the booze
The moon beams gleaming as she blew the old fuse
You would have taught me to believe if you had only pulled through
I’ve been wearing out my shoes cuz I been walking on your street
There ain’t nothing like an overdose to help you go to sleep.

Its all that I need
All that I need
Cynderblock

Oh I wish I was a bird

And all I really have is another god damn
And a sad ass reason to be who I am
