Self-Destruction (as a Sensible Career Choice) - Spanish Love Songs

Well, all I hear is «Patience»

All I have are missed bank payments

I can’t keep my head above the nonsense

This ain’t gonna make me famous

But I can’t eat off this paycheck

My dreams are quick-drying cement

Slipping through the tips of my fingers

Filling my pockets

Cannonballing to the black when I hear you say

It won’t be this bleak forever

(Yeah right)

It won’t be this bleak forever

(And I hope you’re right)

It won’t be this bleak forever

(Have you seen me lately?)

It won’t be this bleak forever

(Yeah right)

It’s like I’m falling deeper and deeper

Thinking some day I just need a miracle

Need about 30 goddamn miracles

While you say «Be your own god»

You say «You're sane, so get yourself right

So we can start again»

I’m so preoccupied with my own life

I can’t see the world is burning down

Until we’re living underwater

It won’t be this bleak forever

(Yeah right)

It won’t be this bleak forever

(And I hope you’re right)

It won’t be this bleak forever

(Have you seen me lately?)

It won’t be this bleak forever

(Yeah right)

And I’m stuck here pulling out threads

But this won’t move in reverse

And I’ll die here in the Midwest

Why can’t I live with that?

It won’t be this bleak forever

(Yeah right)

It won’t be this bleak forever

(And I hope you’re right)

It won’t be this bleak forever

(Have you seen me lately?)

It won’t be this bleak forever

(Yeah right)

It can’t be this bleak forever

It can’t be this bleak forever

It can’t be this bleak forever

(Have you seen me lately?)

It can’t be this bleak forever
