It Ain't Like That Lyrics

There I was, laid out on a table

 Screamin' sweat and bare feet to the floor

 In my life, I'd not soften

 Things that cut, and burn so often

 But I sit, think of somethin'

 Scared to face, the dyin' nothin'

 

 [CHORUS]

 See the cycle I've waited for

 It ain't like that anymore

 

 Where I go is when I feel I'm able

 How I fight is why I'm feelin' sore

 In my sight, not forgotten

 Feel as though, a tooth were rotten

 Behind the smile, a tongue that's slippin'

 Buzzards cry, when flesh is rippin'

 

 [CHORUS]

 

 Here I sit writing on the paper

 Trying to make the words you can't ignore

 In my mind, what I'm lacking

 Score at face, a ten for slacking

 Sign the deal, set in motion

 Smaller fish, so huge the ocean

 

 [CHORUS]
