lyrics

She put tissues in her sock
Broke her shoes in on our walk
My baby and I, nothing to put under our mattress
They’re selling all their stock

Cause, it’s a necessary phase
It’s the dark darkest of days
“I hope you’re ready, you’ve got some shit to carry
You just gotta run and ignore pain”

But, the bootstrap’s a knot
Tried to pull me up, but my hands got caught
Again, I bleed out for what?
For what?

Was gonna start this thing for real
Ready to spin the fucking wheel
But, I guess it’s not my time, I want more than I can ask for
So, what’s the fucking deal with all the riches on TV?
“They want the best for you and me”
I hope you’re ready, your money turned confetti
“You just gotta run, there’s no guarantee”

But, the bootstrap’s a knot
Tried to pull me up, but my hands got caught
Again, I bleed out for what?

But, here I am pulling anyway on a bootstrap, a knot
Tried to pull me up, but my hands got caught
Again, I bleed out for what?
For what?

The panic, it sets in
My blisters, my dead skin I pull off with the band aid
The rent’s due, it can’t wait

My knees hurt and my head spins
I’ll give up, I can’t win
I am, I was always the many, the deadweight

But, the bootstrap’s a knot
Tried to pull me up, but my hands got caught
Again, I bleed out for what?
I tried my best, but I forgot to ask myself for what?
