John Charles - Superficial Stress lyrics

(Verse: John Charles) City days and trainy nights Visiting my destiny and don't know if I'll make the flight Streaks upon the windows to my soul, I'm running out of water I put on my coat and suddenly the summer's gotten hotter This golden sun knows how to make me feel insane I'm getting numb to novacane, and no my mind can't do the pain again My best friend is my memories, next best is my enemies These bigger picture thoughts are standing still without some energy They even have a necklace for my brother made To make it worse they want to talk to me about the color grey Got these children living life as if they know the world's end The men that used to ride submit to pseudonyms with girlfriends Leaving me alone, to the vices of my throne So many bu*tons on this phone, I'm just trying to call to God Trying to be myself in this world and it seems they know me otherwise Imagine if they knew the other guys Today I'm waking up lost and chasing approval I'm eating breakfast on a stomach full of last night's renewal And these sentiments are day-long, stay strong if you pull it On the brink of sure extinction find me blued as a bullet Now let's smoke away the acid trip and wake up with a small thought Engage me in that inauthentic small talk Show me what you want and what you need and where your mind will drop off Don't let me treat the cigarettes the way that Paul thought, God rest his soul God give life to mine and his Can he keep up with the business and still be minding his? A word for your savior: don't make me stress for a blessing I'll give a hand to the preacher if he can return the favor Now I'm anxious every time I see a football Pa**ing on that promise in the way I knew I could stall So, good chat, I'll head back to basics with my humor And with that is it okay if i could clean up for who's ruling next Like Nerva? Na, cus the rebirth doesn't last long And the reefer isn't that strong But you keep listening to that song ... I hope this is the last fall
