Candle Burnt At Both Ends

nose is bloody
tank is on empty

i hope i go to hell when i die
i won't even care what i leave behind
a lifetime of being the wrong guy
got these black thoughts in my mind

i know there's no better days
these afflictions are with me for life
always hiding behind this pink haze
i couldn't even satisfy my motherf*cking wife

i am so sick of trying
i'm so sick of wishing i had died
sick of all of this useless crying
sick of keeping this bullsh*t inside

f*ck  it, i don't even care if it hurts
