Good Terms - Hamster Wheel

To Rate
Calloused knuckles white against my sink
And inches from the mirror
I couldn’t recognize a thing
Just a face in fear
My five minute drive
I would drag it out to ten
Just to spend
Less time in a hamster wheel
For security it wasn’t worth it
Just to feel

Empty and unfulfilled
Like a failure just standing still
And now that i found the will
To quit and take the risk

I wish i realized this sooner
Oh no i hope it’s not too late
The years are passing fast
Can i pick up where i left off last?
Or did i compromise my fate?
I hope it’s not too late, i hope it’s not too late

Who am i now?
Just a checklist of mistakеs?
Can i erase my breakdowns and anxiеty?
My past isn't me, that's the last i'll ever feel

Empty and unfulfilled
Like a failure just standing still
And now that i found the will
To quit and take the risk

I wish i realized this sooner
Oh no i hope it’s not too late
The years are passing fast
Can i pick up where i left off last?
Or did i compromise my fate?
I hope it’s not too late, i hope it’s not too late

I played it smart i played it safe
Why do i feel like such a waste?
It’s black and white, i’m black and blue
And i’ve got nothing, i’ve got nothing

I played it smart i played it safe
Why do i feel like such a waste?
It’s black and white, i’m black and blue
And i’ve got nothing left to lose
But it’s getting harder and harder
Yeah it’s getting harder and harder

I wish i realized this sooner
Oh no i hope it’s not too late
The years are passing fast
Can i pick up where i left off last?
Or did i compromise my fate?
I hope it’s not too late, i hope it’s not too late

Good Terms - Drive-In
Lately the wind’s been taking out of my sail I’ve got no breath left, my lungs are ready to fail I’m empty and awkward And you can’t be bothered Lately I’m dressing up for dates

Good Terms - Cough
{Chorus} I just wanna cough This shit that I've been sucking off isn't strong enough I think I've had too much I'm tired of this fucking fog and hiding

Good Terms - Jump
{Intro} Oh {Verse 1} I get up, and nothing gets me down You got it tough, I've seen the toughest around And I know, baby, just how you feel

Good Terms - Old Friend
{Verse 1} Let's not talk about the president Let's not talk about the rest That I resent that you believe Let's bury it, don't care we disagree

Good Terms - Keeper
{verse 1} How do you have the energy To every day keep telling me You love me when i'm struggling To get out of my bed? My friends are all out on the road

Good Terms - Hear Me Out
I let my thoughts all get too hot You know that’s way we are But I don’t think that’s what I did To make you cut me off so hard Can’t believe you didn’t call me To talk when

Good Terms - Wither Away
{Verse 1} I wake up with an ache to be creative But my time’s spent sittin’, waitin’ As I watch another day go to waste I can’t just shrivel at this desk job

Good Terms - All I Can
Heavy eyes and blistered feet Sweat is dripping from my cheek {?} But you're a thousand miles away {?} But it doesn't end today

Good Terms - Hamster Wheel
Calloused knuckles white against my sink And inches from the mirror I couldn’t recognize a thing Just a face in fear My five minute drive I would drag it out to ten Just
